How was the food in Turkey? I heard it was great especially the Turkish breakfast.

They eat strange stuff for breakfast, like who likes olives for breakfast? But lunch and dinner were

Yes absolutely!!!!

Then what are you doing as a travelling engineer, Babycock is making 10mil a year, with your knowledge and insight, you should be close to that alone.

Baertchi scores tonight?

Thoughts?

I'll take under for 10..what's the pay out odds?

Lefty only knows systems. He would collapse from the pressure/ incompetence as soon as the playoffs started

i think the canucks should play a wide open skating game with stretch passes and lots of scoring.... but they should also be a trap team that limits the other teams' chances.... they should also clog the neutral zone to create turnovers.... and generate lots of shots off the rush... and block lots of shots by collapsing the defensive zone.

it's all so effing easy which is why it's obvious to anyone that understands the game that willie d. is not an nhl calibre coach.
- RealityChecker

That was a little complicated. I know when I was in Tyke we were told to "shoot, pass, kick some ass", we won the championship that year, thanks to a great coach

all righty then, so any thoughts on Dorsett playing in the last 5 mins, or JV not getting playing time and ruining his confidence...ew, ew, I know, here's a good one, what's the thought of playing Bo with Burrows and Dorsett., now there's a good topic.

lol you are on a role on trying to belittle and label. I am not leading any charge of drama queens which you are trying to peg me into for some reason.

I like to see up tempo hockey. Not a trap. If you can't win either way then at least make it entertaining to watch. So what do you want?

Let me guess, it wasn't Desjardins.

No way, his team didnt even qualify for the playoffs in a league where everyone makes the playoffs. Just a real bad coach

we want you to stop.

What if the Sedins say (frank) it and retire after this year? Back to Slobbernovski or wherever they come from to play more Modo

I was wondering that earlier this season. If this season continues to unravel and people start getting fired, why come back for one last season of utter chaos?

It is what it is, professional sports managers and coaches are in the winning business, not the entertainment business. They're measured by their on-ice success...that's how it works.

Lol yes... that's working well. Does that still work under a stealth tank...?

Where else can you get a part time job with your brother making millions with an expectation to fail?

The generation gap is real...

- boonerbuck

Damn straight brother!!

2008 - John Carlson 1st rnd 27th, Holtby 4th rnd 93rd vs Hodgson 8th
2009 - Johansson 1st rnd 24th, Orlov 2nd rnd 55th vs Schroeder 22nd
2010 - Kuznetsov 1st rnd 26th vs acquiring Ballard
2011 - no one vs Nick Jensen 29th
2012 - Filip Forsberg & Tom Wilson vs Gaunce 26th
2013 - Burakovsky 1st rnd 23rd vs Horvat & Shinkaruk

The Gillis era

Walmart?

Seven opportunities to add new generation players out of the 1st round and we basically only have Horvat to show for it... and he had to trade an elite player who was drafted by the previous GM to accomplish this.

There is that...

Hutton looks good....

I'm not mean enough and I don't like to yell, a fail in the coaching ranks. Some very knowledgeable guys don't make good coaches.

And yes I know you were just beating me with a stick there

Walmart?

maybe not millions but keith gretzky is an agm for the oilers.

This is 100% true, I'm more of a rooftop coach

If this continues, in all seriousness, they might say (frank) it....I'm out.

i don't get that sense at all. they seem like guys who would go down with the ship unless the ship's captain told them to get on a life raft.

Lol yes... that's working well. Does that still work under a stealth tank...?
- Nuck4U

It's not a stealth tank, its incompetence by refusing to admit what's in front of you.

Well...Marwood and I are of a much higher intelligence so I could see how you'd miss that
