So if you were one of the better players on a team negotiating a new contract, you’d blindly trust management to not trade you? I doubt it man
- Nucker101

I am of a different mentality altogether. Things change people change. I would go where ever. I would never sign a contract over 5 years. 5 should be the max really.

It’s usually humorous purposes, going to offend people if that’s a live nerve regardless of whether it was joking.

Isn't this a bit hypocritical coming from someone who was offended by Moby Richard?

I still don’t understand the labeling of players. I’ve seen players who I’d go to war with from both Sweden/Russia and plenty of soft Canadian/Americans. Sweden especially I think gets a biased rep from Canuck fans because of recency bias with Canuck players.

I still remember, as a kid, being in awe of what a beast Peter Forsberg was. Then there’s guys like Ohlund, Franzen, Zetterberg, Holmstrom, Hornqvist, Landeskog, Steen, Kronwall, Backlund, Arvidsson, Larsson, etc who aren’t soft at all
- Nucker101

Exactly. Not to mention Fedorov, Malkin, Larionov, Datsyuk, Konstantinov and OV on the russian side. I’d take many of the guys mentioned on here over so many douchey canadian/US players that play soft and are just arrogant pigs in it for the money.

Offended?! Not offended, just think it’s a waste and load of horsepoop. Im honestly surprised anyone thinks otherwise. And to answer your question more directly: no it isn’t hypocritical.

I don't think oneself can determine if they are hypocritical or not, that is for others to decide.

Also, I think you totally mìssed the point of ASL posting Moby Richard

Fight!

There's a difference between calling someone a pedophile and describing an opinion as pedophilic for a humorous purpose, but nevertheless I figured it wouldn't offend him. Sorry if it offended you.

All good. I knew you were only joking. I over-reacted.

Fight!

just so we are all clear

Not wanting Russians is perfectly acceptable because of the Russian Factor (which is 100% real).

Not wanting Swedes/Euros for any reason at all is Bigotry

You BIGOT!

I prefer/ have more of an attraction to East Indian woman and Peruvian women. Preference doesn't make a person a bigot.

That’s an instereatung take on hypocracy, have to say I agree. Nevertheless i can disagree on what you deem hypocritical in this case. My pointing out that something is a waste of space and later pointing out that some types of jokes will offend people just, simply put, is not hypocritical.

Not liking people because of their ethnicity is bigotry. Have a preconcieved negative and generalized view of a certian ethnicity is bigotry. Don cherry is a bigot, for example. It’s ironic that people who talk about how soft guys are all day start crying when called out for their views.

I’m good. Happy to talk hockey. I simply think generalizing about all swedes, euros and/or russians, or any ethnicity for that matter, is a mark of a lack of education. Don cherry baby boomer bigotry.
