the one where marchand tossed the water bottle on the ice and lied to himself about being half rat

Hi Adam, what's the deal with Kravtsov? I hear he's going the way of the challenger spacecraft. Is there trollworthy material here to direct at Peter?

I'll hang up and listen.

I think we beat Van and Calgary, but Edmonton might be too hard to beat.
- PatC80

All three games will be tough, if anything, the Nucks and Calgary are rolling right now. The Oilers cost me a win in the HB pool last week when McDavid and Draisaitl couldn't fart out an assist between them against the Sabres.

I wouldn't do it. It's not a demotion, it's getting him more games because they play in the same city.

true, but I think we can beat the Cansucks

So, what exactly did Montgomery do to get fired?
- PatC80

The NHLs new super duper process for handling those things is handling it ok...thats all you need to know..even though this is not related to that new super duper process for handling those things.

Hope that clears it up for you.

ps.. thats all you need to know . - Love, the NHL

This Dallas Stars team + Babcock might mean a Stanley Cup win.
(I have Dallas to win the SC in the prediction thread anyways - I think they have good chances to win it all this year).
- MaximusAurelius

Does Dallas really want to pay Babs 6+ million in addition to Montgomery's salary? All to have Babcock reduce Seguins's TOI by 4 minutes?

Lucas Neilson: The Wild West: Leafs are locked and loaded
Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton
- Lucas.Neilson

That’s always the sign of a good team when one guy being out can ruin your whole season🤦‍♂️

Top 5 team (roster with men, not boys) + top 5 coach ..
- MaximusAurelius

He had a top 5 team and did nothing with them.

Canuck fans get so excited when Leafs visit. It's like the pope has arrived. Total 1 way rivalry.

Ok.
You trying to take to pathetic shots at either babs or clarkson doesnt make you relevant either.

Only they are making millions in a job where they get hired to be fired.
You are on a blog.
- Fakepartofme

There are also people who have won 50 million dollars buying a 5 dollar lottery ticket. Doesn't make them an ounce better than any of us on here.

You are very hypocritical.

You always say people are allowed to criticize players and are allowed to boo.

Then when someone criticizes Babs you play the "they are rich and you are here" card.

Get off your high horse.

If I was paid that kind of money for sitting on my ass, I wouldn't really care if some anonymous dude on the internet thought I wasn't relevant.

Just saying, Santsie.
- Atomic Wedgie

I could care less what Babcock thinks of me

When have I ever said Babcock should care about what people say?

I am saying he (frank)ed up and did a bad job the last year. He doesn't have to care what anyone says about him....which ironically if he did listen to those people he may still have a job right now. so

I feel like few people here ever participated in a debating competition.

Worse than that....would seem many don't watch hockey!!!

So, what exactly did Montgomery do to get fired?
- PatC80

According to Friedman, at the board of governors meetings he asked if there was any investigations underway for abuse/racial comments. Answer was no.
So whatever happened to him, may not fall under that umbrella.

Nuh-uh.

Going back to my previous assertion, it would be helpful if you supported your statement with some evidence

According to Friedman, at the board of governors meetings he asked if there was any investigations underway for abuse/racial comments. Answer was no.

- Fakepartofme

He bet on who could sexually harass a reporter of colour so that she would supply him with drugs that he would take while punching a player in the face and kicking a puppy.

Nobody kicks puppies.

Something to read, and an interesting chart

One thing that stands out to me is the timing of things is important and when they happened, its easy to look at things today and say, Lou should have done this or Dubas should have done that.

I didnt realize this.



the easy obv answer for the anti-willies is that Lou would have traded him, thats why he didnt sign him
- senstroll

Or maybe ownership didnt want Lou to be the one to negotiate a new contract with willie. Wanted Dubie

Who knows.

Babcock has reached the top in his profession.
Won Olympic title, SC.
not sure why you are painting him in the 'loser' corner. (apart from you disliking the guy).

Nuh-uh.

- RogerRoeper

ummm..he was the one who coached them to the top 5.

apparently Montgommery almost yelled at a player
once.
inexcusable!
