Mine too. It was Bobby Clarke ( yes I was a Flyers fan ) until The isles came into the league.
I played C, I’m guessing with your comment on looking at the Refs hand you were too. unless of course it was your son who told you - nyisles7
Bobby Clarke (!?!?) I thought you were younger than me by your comments. Yea I was a C too. My son plays lax. I’m a born and raised upstater w an older cousin that I emulated who played for the SC Royals and St Anthony’s back in the mid 80”s. I became an isles fan bc all my older relatives were. |

Wings have achieved a historic level of suck. Impressive in its own way. - Wildschwein
Yeah, but they had an amazing run years ago. 4 Cups in 11 years is pretty impressive. |

Yup, Trottier in fact won 2 more Cups with the Penguins in the early 90s. I think Bill Torrey's hands were tied somewhat by then owner, Pickett. The Isles always seemed to have financial problems. Torrey had a budget and traded both Tonelli and Lafontaine following salary disputes. After the Isles missed the playoffs in 1989 (?), a decision was made to rebuild the team. I don't think they wanted to pay Trottier what he was worth to a contending team. I don't remember if they tried to trade him. - JohnScammo
Was 1 as a coach JS or was he a player coach on the 2nd with The Pens?

It’s just crazy how much talent that team/group of players had and how it was mismanaged at the end. Really sad actually. Actually the Oilers succumbed to the same fate. Imagine trading Gretzky???!!!?!! |

Well isn’t it? I’m only going on your posts from earlier today. I mean they didn’t say anything towards the positive. I mean it was basically a BPST lineup, or am I wrong? I mean I don’t want to insult you. - nyisles7
Actually no Toga said that was the BPST. I said it was hysterical they called Ladd up and had Komarov on the second line but by all means keep making up crap. That’s what you do. No worries on insulting me. Go for it😂

The whole point is who (frank)ing cares? The entire thread was kidding around today about calling Ladd up and sending Bellows down. This guy takes it personally. |

You so much agreed to it I’m sure you didn’t say let’s play the game tonight and see what happens, that’s for (frank)ing sure you idiot. Negative, negative, negative.
If they win tonight, it’s because they played the shatty Redwings.
Got you covered. |

Actually, that’s exactly what I said;
Tonight and Sunday are must wins. Hopefully they use it as a spring board to turn this thing around. Good time to get hot.

Trottier played on the Pens during their 2 Cup years, 91 and 92. It appears he started coaching on the 94 Pens team. - JohnScammo
Ok, JS, I know he coached at one point so he has 6 cups as a player holy shat that awesome.
No one can say anything negative about his career except for Captain Blowhard. Anything nurse Negative |
