I like some 21 Pilots, but this is the last place I expected to see someone call them a great band

Why? You don't think they have talent? Their live shows are fantastic.

No, I think the crowd in here is too old for it. I would sooner expect them to get called sh!tty pop music.

I haven't gotten to see them live, but I'm sure it's a fun time. For what it's worth I do think they're quite talented. I really liked the Blurryface album, I was the perfect age for it when it came out.

The point isn't whether he meant to or not. It's the fact that it happened. Jim Rutherford the other day said that they might well be in a rebuild. Did the summer seem like they were in a rebuild? Didn't seem like that. Probably what he said he to do with the team losing.

You should also tell the Rangers GM that he didn't do a rebuild correctly after he wrote a letter saying they were going to rebuild.

I don’t think it’s as black-and-white as you’re making it out to be. Just like anything else in life there’s different levels to what you’re trying to accomplish. The facts are every team, whether you win the Stanley cup or finish last, are continually trying to rebuild their franchise. It’s an ongoing fluid process.

If I say I’m fixing up my car because I change the tires, I’m technically not wrong, I am fixing up my car. However, if I change the engine, change the interior, entirely repainted as well as putting on new tires and rims they’re both considered “fixing up my car”.

You are not wrong, in part, Benning did rebuild the franchise with young players. He just didn’t do a scorch the earth rebuild like Ottawa did or like Arizona’s doing. But as I said, every year, every team is rebuilding their organization to some degree.

Good music spans generations. Too many people are stuck in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. There has been some great music produced in the last 20 years if one chooses to hear it.

I got an avatar bet going with Nucker. I said the Sharks will make it to the second round of the playoffs before the Canucks do.

I like my chances.

How mad would people be if the GM said the rebuild was going well and it turned out to be absolute crap?

OR like Ottawa GM who said, we are done rebuilding and finish 6th worst in the league.

I think under any circumstance when you’re not winning the fans are mad anyways. Now, when you’ve been losing for the better part of the decade and your team is still in last place, I think the fans have a reason to be upset. And it’s not just for one reason, it’s a combination of many many bad decisions. But hey, we have Pettersson and Hughes!!

Nick Kypreos

I'm sorry, but, you can't talk rebuild,when you just signed an almost 30 year-old JT Miller to an 8 million per for 7 years.

😄😄

Not a big fan of Kypreos, but he isn't wrong.
This team has been put in a bigger mess, because of the recent off-season from this management team.

- Reubenkincade

Depends on how you view Miller and how our rebuild is going to go. Colorado did a "rebuild" when they sold off O'Reilly and Duchene(a couple other trades I think as well) they sucked for like 2 seasons after and then started to dominate.

Sell Horvat, Kuzmenko, Garland(Boeser plz) for younger assets/picks and develop the system to compete again. Miller as a winger for w/e centre we get in the top 5 this year will work well. we have young assets with potential and young players turning into Vets(like EP). I think the rebuild will be quicker like Coloardo's, but we need to keep good players on it. I do prefer to resign Horvat and trade Miller, but management chose Miller over Horvat.
