Damn it Ek....

I'm SICK of the Frolov talk with no substance. Now I get you not giving away sources and all. No problem. But to say such a generic statement like 'The problems with Frolov are increasing' and then to lay trade rumors behind it is f-n RIDICULOUS!

Frolov is a quiet guy. He has a lot of natural talent and tends to get a little lazy a shift or two, but his talent lets him get away with that. His ice time is MORE than what is was last year, even though he has 3rd line duty AND he is kicking serious tail on that line with Handzus and Simmonds, dominating in puck possession in the offensive zone. Coaching is praising his efforts and effectiveness. When Pavel Datsuyk calls Frolov the most underrated skilled forward he has played with, there's a reason for it. Why the (FRANK) would we trade a top 6 left wing for ANY center right now when we are prospect deep at that position?

Trevor Lewis (With the club now)
Oscar Moller
Andrei Loktionov
Brayden Schenn
Justin Azevedo
Marc-Andre Cliche

Not to mention all the other centers we have below these 5 top prospects:
Robert Czarnik
Gabe Gauthier
Nic Dowd
Michael Pelech
Corey Elkins
Juraj Mikus
Joshua Turnbull

I'm sure I've missed a few, crap, we are OVERSTOCKED at center. Our problem is a 4MM Jarrett Stoll who is 2MM overpaid, but starting to pick up his game a bit. We need a more dominate center in his position. We'd move up Handzus, but he's NAILS on the third line (Which is technically getting 2nd line ice time). He's a bit overpaid too, but he's earning it.

Point.....WE DON'T HAVE A CENTER PROBLEM. But if we trade Frolov, we'll have a LEFT WING problem. So TELL US IN DETAIL what the (FRANK)in problems are with Frolov!?!?!?!? So, his contract is up. He'll take less to stay here. It's well known he dislikes change. I can't think of any other problems ther could be, so please spell them out for us or STOP TRADING FROLOV!

I like that one

You don't mind if I discount every thing you say, considering you know jack #@%$ about hockey? You put the Rangers in with the rest of the bottom feeders? You're a smart one, Engels. Habs miss the playoffs because they have a rotten goalie (Price? He SUCKS!), rotten defense (what defense?), and a so-so first line (Gomez? Thanks for your best defensive prospect, suckers). Leafs and Habs battle for the 13th and 14th spots in conference. Bank on on it, Homer.

Hate always drives the most epic of posts.

Sure, if the whole leage were doing the same too, but when you see that Gionta has the same cap hit as hOSSA, AND cAMMALLERI HAS THE SAME CAP HIT AS THE sEDINS, gOMEZ HAS A HIGHER CAP HIT THAN dATSYUK AND zETTERBERG, DON'T YOU THINK our gm SHOULD BE ABLE TO PULL SOME OF THESE FUNKY (BUT LEGAL) DEALS OUT OF HIS ASS?

Damn stupid caps, I'm not fixing it..

You know you're angry when you accidently hit the caps lock button and keep right on typing.

still waiting. anyone having a problem with me or who just wants to trash me or others in these forums. PM me your phone number and a good time for me to call you and take up your problem with me man to man. I am so tired of receiving emails from people, like me, who don't even want to read the forums anymore because of all the people who just spend their entire day on the forums talking about how much they hate me or another blogger or the site.

I know I make mistakes. I am not perfect, but neither are any of us.

That doesn't give you the right to simply spew at me or another poster.

The simple fact is that since we started tracking statistics on July 2, 2006 over 12.2 million unique visitors have come to Hockeybuzz.com just under 100 million times and visited over 342 million pages. I am thankful for all of them. I am the luckiest guy in the world.

In that time, just over 20 thousand people (or .0016 of our readers) have ever posted a single comment on a forum. Obviously, the majority of our traffic comes from people who are simply here to read, not to comment on the forums. And when ever I ask people why they don't comment it is overwhelmingly because they find the message boards immature and simply a den of negativity and beer muscles.

This has to stop. I don't put all my energy and time and money into this website so that maybe a few dozen can just flex their invisible muscles.

I hate banning people. I hate censoring comments. But if you can't treat me and others with a modicum of respect and treat them as you would like to be treated than I give the moderators full authority to start cleaning up the crap.

Essentially the rules are simple. Be respectful, stay somewhat on topic and talk hockey. That is the purpose of having forums here. As you can tell from the numbers, we don't need the traffic. We have them so that you all can participate in the conversation.

That is all.

Basically the illegal immigrant jews from Europe formed terrorist gangs and attacked the British administration and the christian and muslim Palestinians after WW2.
Their biggest atrocity was the bombing of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem in which over 90 innocent people were killed.
To stop the bloodshed the newly formed UN decided to split Palestine between the jews and the arabs. The arabs were not happy about this and rejected the plan.When the British left in 1948 the jews attacked the christians and muslims and grabbed their land . Any Palestinians who tried to stay were killed.
The survivors live in refugee camps to this day.Jews believe that Israel is their 'promised land' by God. However, Israel was conquered numerous times, most notably by the Romans, and the Jews eventually dispersed around the world.By this time, Palestine has formed, inhabited by Palestinians, and the Middle East was under British or French rule. After WW2 & the Holocaust, the Jews petitioned the Brits for the creation of Israel, and the Brits came up with a plan to split Palestine into two halves - one Israeli (the bigger portion) & one Arab (Palestinian). The Arabs rejected this plan, but the Israelis went on to declare independence, kick out the Palestinians and take over the whole area, backed by American, British & other Western powers.Ever since, the Palestinians have got the rawest deal imaginable, and nothing is done about it because of the constant funding & support Israel receives from America.

If he would like, I'd talk to him "man to man," but I would prefer that he give me his home phone number. Oh......right.......he doesn't do that, we have to.......cowardly comment, imo.
