Peterka last night. holy crap.
Also, Quinn needs to add a lot more bulk. He is getting manhandled. scored an own goal.
May need to temper expectations on him next year. |

Yes, and no. I've been in interviews where I knew someone else who had a connection with the decision makers, which at times made me wonder "Why did I bother?". That being said, the difference in qualifications wasn't that far off either so it's understandable. However, there are situations where better qualified people are passed over for connections. Hell, the Pegulas are even known for it. - buffalofan19

On the other side, though, I also went into an interview where I had the connection, but still got beat out by someone that was far more qualified than I was. Doesn't exactly help my point, but it also wasn't a position of government prominence either, and it did happen, though. |

Instead of going in the Leafs blog and getting banned, I am just sending emails to Eklund and the hockey buzz email addy. The Law should be banned permanently and Cush29 should no longer be a ref on this site. I encourage the rest of you to do the same. Have a good Monday. |

Self pity and delusion
Add in our injured city and it was rambling about nothing |

So I hate being the once saying this “I went to the America game” guy
But holy cow the game day experience….. not even the game. The game day experience the music choices, the dj, the funny memes, and etc
It blows away the Sabres game day experience. They did such a nice job. - Sabretooth9
Ya it's called playoff hockey |

Woe is me, I'll write a long pity filled post about others not being better qualified, but poor me lost out to a friend of a friend.
Speaking in 100% absolutes is ridiculous - Boss34
I'm not going to comment on someone else's struggles.
But I do hate absolutes, unless they're actually absolutes.

Think we should temper both, but Quinn is going to do some damage. The AHL is a different beast and the playoffs are even more physical. I think a line change would do him wonders.
I think Peterka is better built for playoff hockey at this stage, and that's ok. I'm very excited to see them both in September.

Would you comment on others blaming other objects for their struggles?
Maybe Blaiming a city ? Hometown city? |

Agreed. I am not at all worried about Quinn next year. It hasn't *yet* worked out for him in the playoffs but the sample size is so small. The kid has a ridiculous shot and is more than willing to go to the net - those skills will serve him fine at the next level.
If UPL were killing it down there a lot of people would be saying "Yeah, but he needs to do it in the NHL". |

Well hopefully he keeps rocking it in the playoffs. Maybe his rights become a sweetener. - Buff36
Or we re-sign him.. JJ looks like he's got a new bff

I want to see him again in training camp. I definitely had more confidence in him last offseason. But I'm going into it with an open mind. He needs to show something.

If Quinn's sample size is to small
Then upl in the NHL is to
13 gp
It's the way Quinn is being taken out of the play that's worrisome.playing big boy hockey against him
And so far he's not responding.
Needs to add alot of muscle and more experience
Nothing wrong if all 3 spends more time in Rochester

With R2's playoff performance, Adams has something to think about. If the rumor is true that he wants to return to Europe, it would seem that anything other than a one way deal with a guarantee that he won't be demoted/benched is the only way to keep him. His staff has to take a very close look at his development and if his game can translate. |
