Ive never seen a delivery guy do that. pretty weird.

I read the first one and said "This kid has potential. I feel he can be groomed." Then he went on for another hour

GOD (frank)ING NO. YOU DIDN'T GET IT RIGHT. JESUS CHRIST IS IT REALLY THIS DIFFICULT.

read bro. seriously no offense, but if you are STILL not getting what i'm talking about you need to work on your reading comprehension, because its really not that difficult. or you're intentionally being obtuse, which is also a possibility.

I'M SAYING NO ONE SHOULD BEHAVE LIKE A poop HEAD. YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE REASONABLE DISCUSSIONS ON A HOCKEY FORUM INTENDED FOR DISCUSSION. IF YOU CAN'T HAVE A DISCUSSION WITHOUT GETTING BUTTHURT AND BEING AN bumhole YOU DONT DESERVE TO BE PART OF THE COMMUNITY.

hopefully the caps helped?

here i'll even give you a TLDR: dont be a child when sharing opinions
- Putzfrau

holy poop. i'm done. you win. you're either deliberately ignoring what i'm saying or you just seriously don't understand the concept.

i never told YOU to grow up. i never TOLD you you were being obtuse. i wondered if it could be a possibility because you seem to be DELIBERATELY and INTENTIONALLY ignoring VAST VAST portions of what i said.

if you can't have a DISCUSSION about hockey without turning into a cry baby, you shouldn't participate in the discussions. it's the equivalent of plugging your ears with your fingers when someone tells a child something they dont like.

if someone slings mud you shouldn't sling it back. you should be an adult. you should be able to have REASONABLE. CONVERSATION. (i feel like i've said that before).

i dont know why you continually feel like i'm personally attacking you, unless you feel like you fall into the category of a crybaby incapable of having reasonable conversation. i never called you that, so if you dont think that about yourself i dont know why you are personalizing my statements.

if you are an adult, you should act like one, especially when participating in a community INTENDED FOR DISCUSSION.

again, none of this was directed at you originally. i'm merely still tying, 3 pages late, to explain MY ORIGINAL POST. THAT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU.

never once did i say "you have to sit there and take any and all opinions of torts and the rangers". in fact i made a deliberate effort to explain that YOU CAN defend anything and everything about the ranges if you are capable of and choose to have a reasonable discussion about it.

seriously, how are you not getting this? i dont want to be insulting, but by this point i'm baffled. i dont know how many more ways i can try to clarify. other commenters seem to get it, so i dunno.
- Putzfrau

i neverr.

ever.

ever.

said anything.

about torts.

or about his skin.

nor did i say you were wrong.

i said you were MISUNDERSTANDING what i was trying to say (and you still are).

i can not clarify further.

i made a deliberate and specific reference about the attitude of a FEW ranges fans posting on here. i'm sorry YOU CHOSE to include yourself in that group and feel the need to white knight them.
HOW CAN I REACH THESE KIIIIIDS

(frank)in hell

1. Sign Schultz to ELC max
* Will very likely happen
2. Trade 5th overall + Kulemin + Franson for Jordan Staal
* Overpayment -- Better off trading for the #1 overall pick
Try 5th overall, Franson/Gunnarson for 1st overall pick (EDM)
* IF this happens, you can bet the farm on acquiring a proven #1 C
* ERIC Staal perhaps?
* Give 'em 2013 & 2014 1st rd pick, FransonGunarsson
* They're rebuilding anyway
3. Trade Komisarek + Reimer for Luongo
*Like it. Might be underpayment for Lou.
* Maybe they will have to throw in Mac, assuming 1& 2 have happened
4. Re-Sign RFA's: Frattin, Scrivens, and Holzer
* HAS TO HAPPEN
5. Sign UFA's: Penner, Prust, Gaustad, and Crabb
* Drop Penner. Like the others.
6. Trade or bury Lombardi, Armstrong, and Connolly
* they were useless from the start.

Projected Lineup
Lupul - E.Staal - Kessel
Kulemin - Grabovski - Yacupov
Kadri - Bozak - Frattin
Brown - Gaustad - Crabb
***Prust, Steckel***

Phaneuf - Holzer
Gardiner - Schultz
Liles - Schenn

Luongo
Scrivens

That is a VERY good team on paper.
Shores up every position

* 2 VERY dangerous top lines
* An energetic 3rd line
* a tough 4th line
* Goaltending
* No glut of defencemen

If half of this happens this year, the Leafs will be exciting to watch

YW mapes.

Who knew Charles Wang making four playoffs in five years before the league became the poster child for man games lost to injury was now Howard Milstein?

Seems the players working here right now disagree, who would be calling their agents demanding to get away from Wang/Snow if they were this bad.

Good thing Msg owns Newday so we know the truth behind the paywall or with games on Msg+++++++10 or from a bitter, vengeful failed former media relations coordinator who the media dumped on his watch with a huge axe to grind who took Charles Wang's money to blog for them before turning down what he called a very generous offer.

For a minute I thought Wang owned the Knicks and was demanding another 11m tax exemption like Msg has received since 1981 when they were threatening to move.

Funny the first time the Isles missed the playoffs Milbury resigned in 2006.
Charles Wang's record:
Tavares-Signed/Resigned
Moulson-Signed/Resigned

Parenteau-Wants to be resigned.

Donovan/Signed
Ness/Signed'
Kabanov/Signed.
Poulin/Signed
Nilsson/Signed
Koskinen/Signed

Paul Martin-tried to sign-left Devils/signed with Pittsburgh
Ehrhoff-tried to sign took massive front-loaded money with Buffalo, leaving Vancouver.

Who knows what other good UFA they tried to sign?

What a horrible owner for signing everyone he could, when he could have kept his cash in the bank.

You do know what front-loading contract is and why it's something the Isles and 20+ teams do not offer including Montreal and Toronto who seem to have the Isles problem landing big names unless it's Chris Campoli.

When James Wisniewski get's 36 million with a 10m dollar check for 2011-12 that's what front-loading is. That has nothing to do with the building which Snow said was ONE problem when Smyth got his front-loaded money from Colorado and was gone as soon as they paid the biggest portions of the contract.

Brad Richards is making thirty million dollars for 2011-12 of his sixty million, that's what front-loading is. Ehrhoff twenty million for 2011-12.

All Bridgeport prospects-Signed.
Joensuu-Signed
Rakhshani-Signed
DiBenedetto-Signed
Marcinko-Signed

Charles Wang saved Bridgeport again from Roy Boe, bought management rights has lease until 2021 and is renovating in what is now a profitable building.

Seems the players all want to be here and like working for Charles Wang and Garth Snow, who was spending over 45m dollars before this league had a cap floor.

Jack Capuano a year ago got a team eighteen games under five hundred all the way to four games under with 620 man games lost and was hired with Bylsma and just as qualified to win with the right players.

Sure Charles Wang hates spending he gave Yashin, Peca, DiPietro all that money so people could hate him when he could have left it in the bank and kept Connolly and Pyatt who plays in Phoenix where the league BOG (meaning Charles Wang) let's them spend.

This is while the Caps get revenue sharing while Charles Wang get's Kate Murray.

Funny cheapo Wang did another lighthouse tournament flying in kids from all over the world and housing them for a week with no media coverage. The Coliseum hosts the NYC Cops/Fireman game while Bloomberg shows up at Msg to hand the Garden eleven million dollars.

Seems all the former players loved being here with Peca, Osgood, Yashin and other all praising this owner and their time here. The alumni sure loved coming back to the point Wang was criticized for that too.

Absolutely, let's follow the Florida plan after ten years without playoffs, give an over 35 defender a four year sixteen million dollar contract, let's go take Brian Campbells contract and give Bergenheim eleven million over four years which Tampa would not give him. Let's do the Chicago plan with a competent gm and overpay badly for Huet, Campbell and not sign players on time after firing the coach after four games.

Let's go sign Souray so he can lose here instead or Dallas, that's what a real gm does.

Let's do that 2005-06 Pittsburgh plan and go sign Leclaire, Palffy, and a ton of retreads including Andy Hilbert who finished up that year with Crosby. Isles were in the same lottery for Crosby.

We saw this game in 2000, the fans demanded action and Milbury had a job to save and wanted more than 6,000 fans so Wang spent 130m on players. The trade market is far worse today because of front-loading contracts for top players. Incredible gm Steve Yzerman had to sign Gervais, Bergeron for his defense with Gilroy and Eric Brewer.

If Snow were a real gm he would have done that.

Snow had to bring back returning Eaton, Mottau, Jurcina and made a very poor choice with Staios in a weak UFA market over faster Hillen, Martinek and he lost Katic in camp. Wishart should have been here.

He gambled and lost on Rolston and Reasoner, their second half numbers a year ago were fair gambles that could have helped.

Bottom line he's had very bad luck with injuries, some great decisions and some mistakes.

As for the Coliseum, yes we know. Wang should pay in full and be the only owner who has to renovate a building he does not own many times since 2000, he should be the only New York/New Jersey/Brooklyn or potential Canadian owner who should not receive one penny of taxpayer assistance while everyone else got big taxpayer money or bonds while Wang and Rechler got to lose 20m dollars and do 200 meetings on the Lighthouse, then Wang got to run around all last summer on a referendum no other local team needed for a taxpayer funded facility.

I got an idea. One of you give Charles Wang 200m for the team here and in Bridgeport, then call up Nassau and offer Mangano 400m for a new arena with no development rights and pray that's enough for Mangano, Murray, D'Amato and Mondello to leave the team alone because they will want more or Smg to get everything in your building or no lease because they have their own development plans with Hofstra's Stuart Rabinowicz.

Then we better see some fat front-loaded contracts and 1975 ticket prices or you will not attend one game so another 100-200m for players starting with 70 million front-loaded for Parise to replace Moulson for Tavares.

After that you have to buy Newsday from Cablevision or you receive no coverage which means at least another 600m to regain your own newspaper separate of Msg while they still hide every game they can.

Then another 100m in marketing, buying WFAN put the games on their station when the Mets are not playing.

So that's 1.5 billion dollars, someone call Charles Wang and do it if you believe you have a better plan.

Are we understanding the difference between a stupid post and an epic post now? UG? Big T?

You are all contributing to this threads continuing irrelevancy. Enough.

You're married? That just blew my (frank)ing mind.

And guys guys guys... Who cares if someone has sex with a lot of girls or guys or goats or whatever? Different strokes (feel free to work a masturbation joke in here) for different folks.

Don't be so quick to judge people because they're on a different path than you.

If you never had sex in your life, I don't care... You could still be the greatest person alive.

If you don't have a job, house, education, cat, girlfriend, etc etc, and you spend your days dressing up as a wizard and masturbating under the overpass, that's fantastic... I respect that too. Try to be a little more open, and accepting you greasy bunch of ass gobblers (not that there's anything wrong with that!)
