    I think they're taking a sliver of a sample size and using that without context or realizing that 500 people in the summer is a lot more than any other team likely has. 

     

    I mean, it's the offseason and people go off in the summer and do other things.

     

    Come on board for the home opener or after we string a few wins together and I bet that number increases a great deal.

     

    I think they just are talking out of their blowholes and don't have a clue. And I don't even care anymore.

    Imagine how much more active the forums would be if the team put in just a tad of effort marketing and promoting this lovely community of fans, to the fans. most people are here because they happened upon it one day and just stuck around because its an awesome source for team news and just general comradery. Even just once instagram post advertising that the forums exist would do wonders for activity/membership imo.

    Mitchell.   To this day believe he was the missing ingredient.   Going after Ballard and Booth with all that saved cap space ... Should just signed Mitchell.   Instead he signs with LA and becomes part of what could have been a nice run for us the following year.    Nothing against Rome and Alberts... But Mitchell instead ... he was our best D for a couple seasons leading up to his concussion.   Thing is ... he was ok.    And even if he just played half a season, the latter half ... he didn't cost LA much to sign and wouldn't have cost much for us either.   Mitchell was one of the better D's we've had since the late 2000's. 

    Mitchell, Tanev, Edler.. whats with us giving up on loyal steady defenceman that then go on to excel elsewhere

    Naw I definitely see where you're coming from. Last car I had was a 2008 Honda Civic SI and traded it in after 12 years. I'm just sick and tired of people saying, $11,000 ACCIDENT?!?! UR CAR WORTH NOTHING. WOW! NOBODY GOING TO BUY THAT. UR LUCKY TO GET WHAT U GET.

     

    I'm just so tired of the stigma. I just want to be rid of it.

    Stop worrying about what other people think then lol it won’t matter if nobody is going to buy it if youre going to keep it for another 10-15 years as you says its mechanically just fine.


    You seem set on getting a new car though, check out a subaru sti i do want one of those..

    Just keep your current car lol its not a great time to be buying a new car unless required and you already mention that you barely drive. After all the crap they tried to pull they dont deserve your business anyway.
     

    If you feel like forking out $16k for a depreciating asset that you barely use then go ham. I personally am the type of person to drive my car into the ground and thoroughly enjoy driving my 2003 rsx-s with 230km that i paid $10k for in 2012. Many other things i would rather spend my money on but maybe im just too frugal.

    haha, no... i got what you were referring to that sucked. I should have typed...'Isn't he good!' ...i used the wrong punctuation. I underestimated him too. Thats why I mentioned cerebral etc... I was once asked what attribute I would rather have...speed or power....I answered, timing. Hill has that in spades.

     

    Yeah, I'm happy with that title scenario.  Would love to see either guy vs Jiri.

     

    BTW, Jiri is awesome too. 

    As a bit of a traditionalist myself, its fun to watch him doing the samurai thing...punching trees etc...lol/

    Timing beats speed and precision beats power~

    Maybe the most cerebral fighter out there. Timing and grace under fire. It's like he can slow down time and finds the perfect spots. Really impressive.

     

    Didn't watch your vid but I read about is bball injury. It does suck. 

    Lol ya i meant the injury sucks not him. Hes fun to watch and i always underestimate him.

     

    Jan vs Alex for vacant title ?

     

    Jiri gets winner
