I'm still hoping that one of Frost/Farabee surprises and makes the team, but they should be fun to watch. Also excited to see how Sandstrom does in a full NA year.

I’m here as well....hoping there are a couple of surprises come training camp.

Jets are one of those interesting teams that could move some major talent. If I’m Hayes I’m listening to philly but see no reason to not wait a couple of weeks. The Flyers can make their pitch and hopefully it’s the best option for him.....and my wife and kids are great....thx for asking.

This. I'm an avid reader of Bill's (and the board in general) and rare poster, but this is getting out of hand. 99% of the comments are just straight trolls nowadays, this place has become unreadable.

Tbh most of the die-hards had enough of you know what and left. At the end of the day all it does is hurt Bill's clicks. But yeah, I'm far less active here than I used to be. Place needed actual mods that don't play favorites 3 years ago. It's pretty much beyond help now.

It is the evolution of any chat board. Trolls come in, people ignore them at first, then people start to respond. The responses generate more trolling. The responses get meaner. Mods take a stance and ban the non-trolls who are responding. This strengthens the trolls so they get bolder. The responses grow in kind and the occasional troll gets banned, but more often than not it is the regular poster. Tired of the inequities of justice, the poster moves on to other things cause sometimes it just is not worth it. That leaves more trolls in the community. As the non-trolls see this they also leave, giving you what we have here today

Tomorrow's lesson will focus on overbearing moderators who live for the power they are given via an internet char board

That's why I still read Bill's blog every day and skim the comments. His stuff is too good not to read and give him the clicks.

How about maybe tomorrow we talk about hockey and not about people. Maybe give that a try.

(I sure hope I spelled everything correctly and used correct grammar)

Could blow up in his face. If it’s only about money, sure he’ll do fine. But what happens if the only acceptable offers come from the likes of Ott? Does he want to see the playoffs again? Could be left without a dance partner. Don’t think Fletch will wait more than a couple more weeks before he pulls the trigger on plan b.

👍 I liked Hayes the short time we had him, made me mad Maurice wouldn’t play him more, not surprising but stupid none the less
