If i thought we were “Cup contenders” then why was i saying our goaltending sucks?

Hmmmmmm….
Once again, your misquoting me doesn’t add up

dude I quoted adams and terry


I only posted that meeting 100 times on this site when they thought they could land hall and compete for the cup


it's not all about you

pick a line

respond back and forth

or ignore

I really could care less, we had decent conversations in the past

- homiedclown


If u could care less,
u wouldn’t be trying to get me all “razzled”

This current back n forth is on you,
and for no reason or purpose other than to start sh!t
U basically admitted it a few posts ago

Let it go dude
It’s boring
And I’m sure no one wants to read our back n forth about nonsense

we had no choice

owners were too cheap to bury hutton

it was what it was

they brought in hall, thought they were cup contenders and stuck with hutton


some days I threw goalie trades out there, early on

when the season was lost, didn't matter

- homiedclown



This is interesting, the hutton part.

I like the angle, hutton was the playoff guy....

For terry being such a big fan, you would think he would watch the games and see that hutton was dookie.

Maybe the eye vision problem blinded terry
Thought the injury caused the poor play

it's still amazing our owners are asking agents questions for free agent signings

Goaltending has been an issue here since Miller left

GMTM bet on Lehner, and substance abuse won

Botts bet on Hutton, and lack of talent won

Hopefully UPL will develop into a franchise goalie for us
Bc it’s really hard to build a young team without good goaltending

Blaming the Pegula’s overall is one thing

But it’s not like they told GMTM to trade a 1st for Lehner,
or told Botts to specifically sign a backup quality goalie (Hutton) who had good numbers with a good defensive team in front of him

And it’s not like the previous owners said to draft Miller in the 5th round
Or to trade for Chicago’s awkward backup goalie (Hasek)

There’s just no connection there imo
I think you’re reaching

the owners have the hand in the players

they told murray to speed up the rebuild

they then told botts to finish the rebuild when he got hired

they then said when dahlin was drafted, speed up the rebuild, playoffs or bust

I just posted the video link where terry is asking hall's agent questions

when you don't have a good nhl goalie , you should use 2 picks in every draft, later picks, to try to find a goalie down the road


when you find your goalie, you should still spend 1 pick every year on a goalie

I’ve never seen anything that said they had a hand in trading for Lehner or signing Hutton
Not even from you, or any of our other insiders

GMTM had all the pieces in the world to acquire a goalie
He bet on Lehner, & was wrong
That’s not on the Pegulas

Botts decided to sign Hutton instead of going after an established starter
Idk how that’s on the Pegulas either?

Just bc they were involved in some player decisions,
doesn’t mean they were scouting goalies & telling our GMs who to acquire

they wanted him to win now so he got lehner, the goalie he knew


it sucked, if they waited a year to make their moves, probably would have been a really decent team if a few things went their way
