  1. this is my team, during the good times and bad. i'll never turn my back them.
  2. 4 way tie..falcon 2 , cerridwen 2, sykes 2, canpuck luck 2. kryten has 1. did i miss any?
  3. or we could let the people hired to build and run this team and the players assembled to play this game, time to figure out the problems and correct them. the alternative is to let cdc solve all the problems.
  4. lets play musical chairs with management, coaches and players until we win the stanley cup, so every fan will be appeased. our goal should be to have 4 first lines, three sets of top defensemen and 2 elite goalies. nothing else will do. but not just 1 cup but a dozen. if a player or players are struggling, fire the coach or the gm for signing or drafting them. perfection or bust.
  5. why do we have a louie face? is that the ultimate put down or does it have another meaning? does it mean he is a good human being or a worthless one?

      roussel and sutter arent bringing anything that bailey or macewen cant     id rather pay 2 ahlers 700k each than 7.25 mill combined for the trashy vets we  have been losing  so not like it will change the outcome by  not going with the vets

      i think we can be critical of a player, without the disrespect. his talent has diminished but as a person, i'm sure he is a decent human being. i know that my abilities are not what they use to be, but i'ld like to think i'm still a decent person. maybe i'm not.

      Joe, not only are you still decent, you set the bar for decency.

      Dammit Joe I told you to make more than one key! :)

       

      Glad to see you're back!

  7. if i had a stick in my hand, it would be to hold me up. you on the other hand, is much better suspect. get all your stories straight.

      They are messing with you Joe. It's back to back games. Remember everyone is playing their own division. So you're going to see a lot of the same teams. Think of the Original 6. 

  9. could hawrlik be beagle’s eventual replacement? i haven’t seen him play. is pods, pearson’s replacement for next year? good luck nucks.
  10. he does know things. he has an in with the man upstairs. him and gabriel went to different schools together.
  11. did we ever get a final standings for 2020? did futzy forget?
  12. hope this does not spread. makes how fragile this covid makes everyone.
  13. while i like the idea of a taxi squad, how do these players get better if the spend the year not playing? i think of guys like depietro.

      Agree.  I don't want DiPietro on the taxi squad.  Kielly can go on there.  If there's a long term injury to Demko or Holtby, ride the other until DiPietro passes quarantine.

  14. i don’t have to see a cup. i love the journey with the team through their ups and downs. i use to tell my players, if you go out, give everything you got and lose, you’ll still be winners to me.
  15. which larry story is on your list?. there is so many. did you mean larry storch?
  16. my ancestor movie on... robert the bruce.

      i have geneology from a geneologist taking me back to rolo the viking. i was a little disappointed in the film. i had hoped he would have shown his love for his daughter marge. she was also my grandmother. she was held in prison for a few years. robert sent walter stewart to bring her back when she was released. they ended up getting married. their son james became king of scotland and eventually king of england.

      i don’t lie. i’m not bragging but i have done lots of research on them too.

      i had my dna test and i know i’m mostly french, then scottish with traces of welsh, irish and native. when the explorers and fur traders married native women, the kids became the metis race of today. heinz 57.

      drummer, i sent your some of my scottish routes but sent them to drummer boy by mistake. if you want info on it, contact me.

  17. my bucket list is complete but i would have loved to have visited scotland, especially grant town on the spey and normandy france where my ancestors came from.
  18. i changed 3 people on my list or we would have had 12 the same. i dropped lear, kisinger and holbrook. good luck in 21.
  19. what are you trying to say? you want to trade your eyes for mine? not a good idea. you’ll never score a goal with my eyes.
