Have we not had enough of Sweden?

Not in 3 years. I'd take Hedman or Karlsson any day of the week.

Nope.

Have we already entered apathy and focusing on the draft?

I can't speak for anyone else, but yes, yes indeed. I'll still try and watch as many games as possible and hope for goals and wins but ultimately i want this team to finish as low as possible.

Wow even Don Cherry came around. Rate a player by his performance not his lineage.

Funny thing just happened. One of my exgf's just posted old pics on FB of her and Barry Pepper from when they grew up together. I said I never knew they were friends. Then she starts telling the times we met and hung out... it was so long ago and before he was known in Hollywood. I still can't remember.

I wonder if he was banging her?

This happened in 90. It's Pat Quinn's fault.

What is your malfunction? Clearly facts are not part of your narrative. There is a conversation and analysis. It's not WD suck speech. Obviously, you don't get it and have no clue on what to move on or speak about. Though your obessession to be offensive and disruptive is telling by your thoughtless contribution to hockey talk.

Since I was the 1st to bring up detailed systems play / coaching
, about 1.5 - 2 years ago I have had tons of observations I think I should pass on.
1. What we see and a growing number of others see in this way is glaringly obvious to us, yet many do not see it. Seems to be a majority of 60-70% that dont. Its like Math, lots of people struggle with it not matter they do. Some find it easy.
That is OK, they will never get it or see it in all likelihood. They are just as passionate of fans as us just dont possess the vision to see the game within the game strategy wise. Just a different skill set.
Get used to it, they will always exist.
2. Since others dont personally see it they dont believe it or try to discredit. There seems to be the attitude that if they dont see it, understand it or is what they want to hear then it doesnt exist Dont take it personally, its their own arrogance.
3. it is unreasonable for anyone to expect all people here to see things exactly the same way no matter what view you have.
4. Ive tried posting material to educate people on systems play and it made no difference. You can lead a horse to water dude.
5. For some reason this topic seems very polarizing....some even angry
6. some people here are here to troll, start fights and heckle others. A negative agenda
7. keep in mind who your audience is. Its the same reason I dont post detailed posts on it here anymore.
8. Some here cannot get their heads around a coaches responsibilities / roles and how they affect / control a teams play
9. Some here prefer to heap it all on the cast of players. Do you realize what the astronomical odds of someone assembling an entire team of players who cant score, no urgency in their play, cant clear a zone and make bad puck decisions is? It's impossible is the answer. Willie even said it himself "if its an entire team its the coach." straight from the horses mouth.
10. Many here are extremely negative. There is definitely a negative slant on the team here.

Dont let it all get to you or let people tell you not to talk about it. But remember your audience and keep your own expectations in check.

Let's talk Krug's hit on Shaw last night? Suspension or not?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqhktUKdVZI

I think it should be two games.

He already committed to the hit before Shaw reached. It was a hockey play. Principle point of contact was the head though. Tough call.
