  1. Johansen was such a promising prospect, back in the day..now it appears he's circling the bowl.
  2. Would say it's fair to suggest his eventual ceiling is debatable. Guess I'd trust our mgmt's pro scouting to make the appropriate call there.. don't really pay much attn to teams out east.
  3. Appreciate the optimism of your(80-90% of them) posts. Indeed, things aren't so dire.
  4. Also, see Miller as somewhat similar to Tkachuk in style & effectiveness. MT breakthrough PO's could well increase the interest in JTM. As for the Canes, would say taking on that Kotka contract is doing them a favour. Something like Morrow, Drury & a 1st is much better.
  5. Ha, didn't bother to view Brindy's w/c/shoulda' presser..but he deserves the Monty Python, is it a witch(?) test. Some brave media schlub coulda' held out a broom, saying, "Hey buddy, park yer vehicle elsewhere!" Had commented here back in Feb/Mar(?..around TDL) that every spring, their offense goes Sahara-dry. FLA ground them down(close games, notwithstanding). Canes deserved SFA. FLO & Vegans are proof somewheres along the line, your team-build requires some risk. Pietro, Eichel, Bob & Tkachunk are prime examples. Drafting well is great Canes, but sooner or later a team must stick it's neck out with some associated risk...
  6. Canes get frozen mukluk to d'arse for their juvenile, twitter shenanigans. Maybe they'll finally clam it, & ditch that storm surge crap too!
  7. Strip the 'C' off this moron! Degenerate dirtbag, on a good day.
  8. Maybe Monty Python's Holy Grail flick symbolically represented our course? When they were gettin close to their goal, didn't the Cops arrive & bust things up?! lol Does any person seriously think this league is run equally & honestly for all 32 entities? Why be utterly absorbed with only the end goal, at expense of every waking moment beforehand? Personally decided a long ways back, to try & enjoy the journey..even through the treacherous minefields(some of them likely laid by Bettman lackeys!). A sense of humour is recommended..alongside 15-30 other hobbies!
  9. Imagine the Cats meet the Vegans & toss them like a salad. They would have beaten the 1st, 2nd, 4th & 5th placed teams from the overall, reg season standings. Them 4 teams collectively accumulated 470 pts(117.5 pts, per team)! 99.9% sure that would be absolutely unprecedented. Don't like the Tkachunks, but would love to see them pull off this amazing feat.
  10. Then there's Brady, who the Habs squandered when they opted for Goofy Kotka-weenie. It happens. We scored some nice FREE talent over the past yr(ish)..isn't it high time to look forwards?!
  11. Good to have the clarity with this one. Lots goin' on in the world, these days. Wish him well, & back burner this lotto ticket.
  12. Not a scientific expert(have been told), but suspect this behaviour is strongly linked to the surging trend of family fights at Disneyland theme parks.
  13. Like this hire for the Flames. Dude's got a big personality, & for a GM gig, that's half the battle.
  14. Gettin Schneid-vibes with Goalie Bob. His beautiful positioning, & effortless, compact butterly is deja vu. When Cory was playing in Van at his highest level, his style looked so similar to what Bob is showing these PO's.
  15. Would bet CAR would lovvve a JTM type right about now. Wouldn't be surprised if a significant offer arrives from them prior to his NTC. Don't like their twitter antics. A broom sweep would be a nice, healthy slice of humble pie.
  16. Yeah, the guy assembled one heckuva' talented cast... had it been for the lovely, ****ing Nutcracker ballet!
  17. Prefer to view it as Bo & our 2nd, for Hronek, Beau, Raty & a 4th Be nice if they could trade Beauvillier for a solid pick(2nd?), then could sign Hronek to a reasonable AAV. To some degree, the jury's still out. However if these 2 deals were all lined up & you went back in time, would certainly pull the trigger again.
  18. Appears society is again moving in a general direction of accepting CAPital-punishment!
  19. Sweeet finish! Time to tear it all down, Hogtown.
