You know, the problem, in part, with Canucks management and coaching staff is that they're "old school" guys. They were brought up in a system where this is how you do it and this is how's it's always been done.
IMO the guys who are successful are the guys who are willing and able to adapt to changing times. Torts is an example of a guys who's 100% completely unwilling to change his mindset, thus he's stuck and the game has passed him by.
The moral of my ramblings, I don't believe Willie is there yet, and I'm not sure he ever will be. - LeftCoaster
I think we talked about this a while ago. We need a coach who can adapt. In some ways WD has but the old school mentality never left and the team will and is suffering for it.
I will take solace in the fact that JB can draft. |

LOL!!! You don;t even know the basic premise... unless you are Systemtool. Why don't you just admit it. - Beatle_john
out of curiosity. when did this occur. i frequent the boards for the leafs and read about every page. so while it is possible i somehow missed the convo, i don't recall your screen name at all. |

I think it had to be withdrawn because Systemtool made a terrible connection/joke between Native Canadians and being addicted to drugs and alcohol. I called him on it.... he went running to Dozzer. I know this because Dozzer told me so. He was banning me for a week because I upset the locals. I had no idea, I was gone into the interior fishing for the week and did not find out until I got back.

If I was systemtool why would I not know the backstory your claiming. my comments are based on what you've written on this blog and nothing more. It's nice you think so highly of yourself though. Peace out |

I was listening to the radio yesterday at lunch and someone asked Hank about splitting up the twins. I was surprised at his answer.
He came right out and said no that is not the answer and it will not happen. This alone makes me think don't bring in a new coach until they are gone. I take that as the patients running the asylum . |

If they don't want to split up they need to produce. This is on them. |

Yeah, I have no issue with anyone to be honest. Just be aware that System Tool is a lying sack of .... expired flour. I just want the regs in here to know.

As much as I am sure I would love that, I have to stay focused.
It's Wedgie's birthday today. Dinner at the pub, followed by taking the family to the game.
I want the Leafs to win, just so that Canucks fans drown in their own tears I'm just hoping for an entertaining game. |

Well you could always ask Dozzer. Would that be proof enough? Ask Dozzer why he banner me and who did it and under what circumstances.
Then you can apologuise to me and I will give you a big hug, some nachos and wish you a happy game.
