  1. Always had a thing for Holly..such a hottie. The man had sweeet co-workers. RIP Bob. TPIR, MASH & Three's Company..flashbacks to the 70's. Good Times
  2. If they build it, he will come...
  3. Hard to take the riggeddeckleague seriously, in recent decades.
  4. Yanks could prob assemble a pretty sweet entry these days...
  5. BroonGoons already went drunken-sailor mode with future picks. These degenerates will bottom-out soon, confronting a harsh karma for their corrupt 2011 antics.
  6. Luke Hughes, Mercer & lil' Bratt For Quinn & Conor Gnarly? Wonder how close Luke will get to Quinn's ceiling? Might consider something like this ..but prob we should keep the bird-in-hand.
  7. Darn tough question! Why not just ask us the direction the wind blows at 5pm on Oct 7th?! I say send Myers down(short period, see if anyone would grab his cap) & give the kiddies a shot. Woo, Wolanin & Hirose.
  8. A guy who somehow turned everyone/thing into a complete MESS! By the end of it, seemingly every BC'er had a massive chip on their shoulder, & this arrogant lowlife prob got commission/pay-offs for that too. Pat Quinn was great..but that whole chapter was a desperate gaffe.
  9. Tired of that hillbilly fam, collectively lowering the league's skill level. Hope their goonie coach/GM contributions also go the way of the dodo. 2014 was our time of HOPE for them potential trade returns. What'd we wind up with? Paltry pieces pissed away with additional mindless dealings. LTIR TP, & Absolute BS our last reminders of a bogus blueprint.
  10. I like the idea of a rambling-gypsy team with no permanent home. Keep them up in Canada, & they stay 2-4 wks at random locations throughout the season. No salary cap(sponge up the league's excess)..perhaps a limit of 30 bodies? Fading vets & undisciplined rooks. They could travel with RV's & perhaps a harem caravan. This would give the boring, planted sports journos something actually interesting to cover.
  11. Interesting news to wake up to. Appears a fairly balanced trade for all 3 squads. The BIG, overall winner? Ottawa Sens. Excellent production from EK65(Hoffman too, to a degree) then turn that asset into TWO top young C's?! Whoa..larceny. edit: Correction, THREE good young C's..Stutzle, Norris & Ostapchuk. Unbelievable How bad would the outrage be on these boards, had a prev GM consummated such a deal? Way worse than the OEL fiasco.
  12. S'pose it's better than appointing as Prez..Joe Jackson! Is he really gonna SIGN with them Are they really gonna TAKE him home tonite?! x2 Cos' if the boards don't deceive me there's somethin goin wrong....
  13. For how many decades have we dreamt of reaching the Peeke?!
  14. Thought it was Connor Mackey who messed up Mik..I'd been cursing his name since that tilt. Did I get the wrong goon?
  15. Seems about the goin' rate..so nothing to get in a tizzy over. Really hope he fits in well w/the core guys, & thus would be open to locking in at reasonable numbers.
  16. We're pretty good up front..glad we went with Willander.
  17. Sens also my eastern squad. Like their moves; similar to Van with a strong O, but perhaps light on D.
  18. If necc, waive Giraffe & promote Woo. Who's gonna claim a 6 mill hit? What GM would 'stick their neck out'. We can move bodies around, looking towards youth/the future for a change. Prob better if TM got 50-60 gp in the bigs & spent some time in Abby. Make him depth-insurance; give kids like Woo the opportunity to show their mettle.
  19. I've been anticipating 8 x 11 for quite some time now. He's the one you build around.
  20. Glad DP keeps getting a shot. Hope he becomes one of these late-blooming vets, who sticks in the league for several seasons. A Roloson-type career.
  21. Tocchet,(no shrinking violet, as Don C used to say) has an interesting approach with motivation. Since he was such a talented & nasty mf'er, I bet most worthwhile players like what he's selling. Appears there's plenty belief & buy-in. There's risk involved, as with hc's like Torts, for example. Some players flourish, but others can wear down & get dinged up. Sure hope Brock gets a full season to show his stuff. The (still) young guy has talent, character & charisma in spades.
  22. You HAD to be so proud of that Canucks squad..basically David vs Goliath
