Noeller

If this kid turns out to be anything of value, he's going to be a HUGE fan favourite...

They say the same thing every year. I'll believe it when I see it, but he's right. They need to be better all around, so here's hoping...

They loved him for it two years ago, so here's hoping!

aaaaaaand it begins. Just let it slide, Spuds......ignore.....

thankfully all worked out in the end. Hawks over LA in 6, Boston over Pitt in 7.

This is the perfect Camp Day post. Love hearing individual "Just my opinion, but..." stuff.....great job!!!!

Exactly...have no problem with coaches, management, etc.....it's only the fans.

It's the one thing you Stamps fans and I can actually agree on...

Well, (and as someone that's legit a fan of MR9), that's gotta be best case scenario. If Cameron turns out to be half as good as we hope, then we're cookin'....

Any reports from today? Gotta be done, right?

F*** the Riders indeed...

I think we nearly died during that Coach's Corner, but it was worth it. That man is nothing short of a god...

I dare say I'll be posting more now. OB had become dull and uninspiring for me. So much this. MBB definitely inspires me to be more active on the boards, and it helps that the most readable posters from OB have migrated here.

Well, he's one of the best moustaches in the league, anyhow. As a somewhat-Leafs fan, I have a strong detest for all things Ottawa. Mac has got a lot outta that roster, tho...

Overrated, IMO...but a better option than Vaigneault or Torts (ugh!)

Have never, will never understand the hate for Claude Noel. What he gets out of this sad-sack roster is almost unbelievable. The Jets have little to no talent and have massively over-achieved for 1.5 seasons now. IMO, Noel should be up for Coach Of The Year. Torts and Vaigneault would be massive downgrades. Now, if Quenville becomes available, that's another story....

Maybe canning Sather, too, would be good, but there's no question that getting rid of Torts was smart. The dude is an idiot and a liability...

Not a fan of the guy in any way shape or form. The less I have to see him on TV, the better...

Fresh start.........for now

Sweet -- keep me posted on the details, so I can get things ready!

All of you who get to attend the opener are VERY lucky -- gonna be a great night!! As for Cochrane, we saw him at the Memorial Cup in Brandon a few years back and they totally rocked it. Backed by Red Rider, they still had it. Was a great show!

Detest everything about the Pens. Lotta folks in southern AB cheering for Pitt because of Iginla, but I say the changing laundry means we can hate on him now. Can't stand the Pens or anything about them...

Thought I'd get the General Forum going with some puck talk. So, who've you got in the playoffs? I'm a big Jonathan Toews guy, so the Hawks are my dog in this race. I don't mind the Kings either, but can't stand the Pens. I had no problems with the Bruins till that Game 7 vs the Leafs, and now I'm not so happy. Would personally like to see a Hawks/Bruins final, but it's going to be interesting to see how it breaks down!

Sweet dude -- good call. Loving so much about this already. The threads that are based on newspaper articles are fantastic with the "Original Story Here" link at the top, then the text. Looks great!!

One of the worst things about having to live in AB for work, is missing out on camp. Love reading the individual thoughts as it's happening. Thanks to everyone who takes the time to update the site on what they see and hear!
