Delete your account. Most of the guys he drafted are playing on the flyers right now. Plus we have Burke to help us make moves.

This is Hextall's weakness...he can't make any moves to improve an actual NHL club. The only thng he's good for is accumulating draft choices and maybe half of his 1st rounders pan out and almost none of his picks after round 1. He has this reputation of building this porspect pool in Philly but where are they now? Zero great prospects...ok maybe Farabee...everyone else...mediocre...and don't get me started on how he destroyed the culture of the Flyers...soft as a baby's bottom...good luck Pens fans...let's see if Hextall lasts as long in Pitt as Philly...hopefully he also wrecks the Pens like he wrecked the Flyers...and hopefully that dud is reading this so he knows Philly hates him now.

I dunno if I could give up on the Florida fishing and no winter. I like being able to travel to the cold and leave whenever the (frank) I want. I don’t think I could live in the cold again. Haha

Rarely goes below the freezing point in Vancouver....but...it gets much cooler than Florida, no question...I was in Florida in July/August before and it was not enjoyable hahah so humid my nut sack was stuck to my leg the whole time...I like Florida September to May

EDIT: wouldnt worry about losing on fishing. BC has some of the best fishing in the world....so do we here in Newfoundland.

hahah it doesn't get THAT cold in Vancouver, very rarely gets cold enough to snow in winter. Snow is very rare there. Its pretty warm there for long periods of the year. BC is one of the best places in the world to grow weed because of their climate...they even have a rainforest. Its a very beautiful province.

Theyre gonna go as far as they can with this roster this season and then blow it up in the offseason.
- Murphy_Dump


With the window esentially closed it seems unwise to move prospects and picks for any of the marginal players available. I could perhaps envision Hextall flipping one of the struggling players for a similar player, but it is unlikely they will expend any of their limited prospects. This coming off-season is when I expect to see significant changes.

You’re talking to crazy Canuck. I don’t think they even register the cold.
