sweep the leg

Reasons his offense was terrible: 1. Joey Elliot 2. Alex Brink 3. Steven Jyles (was actually moderately effective for only time in his career under Lapo) 4. Broken down Buck Pierce

it's dishonest to suggest that Khari is just a mini Bellefool. It's also dishonest to suggest he's done anything as a coach that warrants giving him this job. I'll be pretty disappointed if he's the best we can do.

Yes, the reason is that he's turned down oc jobs waiting for a hc gig. Or at least that what rumours have suggested.

Why do you say that? What title would we have to give him to get him out of Toronto?

Dallas & Nashville are the only two "non-traditional" markets Bettman moved into that have seen success. Arizona, Atlanta, & on a lesser scale Carolina, have been train wrecks. Columbus has been ok, but are still in the bottom third in attendance. Colorado & Minnesota have been successful, although even Colorado's attendance has been down lately.

He's wrong to think this isn't a story, but I get why he'd try to play it down. IMO it's more of a funny/embarassing story than anything of real importance though.

With Collaros, Hamilton is the best in the East by far. I'd put Ottawa 2nd though.

Hamilton's backup qbs weren't very good. Ottawa's qb depth is terrible, but they were lucky enough not to need it.

I'd take Ryan Smith from that list. That's about it though.

Theo Fleury isn't gay. He was sexually assaulted by a pedophile. How can't you know there's a difference?

His team is going to miss the playoffs this year.

The under 23 team at the World Cup will be made of Canadian & US players. So Connor McDavid, for example, can't play for team Canada. In the Olympics, there are a few countries with loose Nationality restrictions that let Canadians playing in their national leagues play for the national team. This way Gordie Johnson from Moose Jaw can be German for a few weeks every four years.

Why not? Lets tighten the foil hats and suppose Miller would only hire a gm who agrees to keep O'Shea.

Except there will be also be Canadians on another team. *I realize there are always Canadians on other teams (Germany), but these Canadians will be good.

Good point. The setup of this tournament is nonsense.

They can cite climate change all they like but that's just out and out lying. They're trying to protect their own interests nothing more. I hate when climate change is used as a political tool. Call it what it is, don't want competition for the American oil production. I'm not sure if that's it. I think they're just buckling under to environmentalists.

Im not a journalist. I did read the article. Link was included in the tweet. Do you need me to wipe your ass for you too? The quip at the bottom of your post suggested you hadn't.

Assuming Crosby turns it around and has a Crosby-like season, I'd pick him again. If he has the terrible season he's on pace for, I'd give it to Toews. Less pressure and a chip on his shoulder might be good for him.

Well thought out and reasonable. I'm convinced.

Thnks Tracker it really looked like with the offseason upgrades that we were on the way.Then reality came crashing down.I gotta hope that the call of Guelph comes through and we start again. If the Lawless report about O'Shea and Bellefeuille being retained and extended is true, it would be the worst news the team and fans have had in decades. Can you provide a link for the MB extension report?

To be incredibly sexist for a moment...there's only one way to solve their disagreement and it involves a lot of jello.

Agree to disagree, and you're welcome.

Nope, sorry. You dont get it. Im not faulting you for not getting it. But it would be like if I googled nuclear fusion and then posted on a discussion forum for experts. I might think I get it, but I dont. You dont. Sorry. Lol at your lack of self-awareness for posting this. How long did you argue the niqab issue when you had no clue what you were talking about? Also, this isn't an apt analogy unless you consider the contributors to this thread experts is gay issues.

And yet there are people on this forum who opined that he was a bust or that he'd only be effective in limited snaps .. In case you're new here, there's a lot of morons around here... There *are* a lot of morons around here.

Posey in for Washington. Foreshadowing perhaps? Like seeing the young guys getting a chance.
