Last year was real eye opening for sure. We get hate all the time (so we're kinda experts), but they brought it to a whole new level. Creating fake accounts just to talk **** was an amazing low that I hadn't seen before on this site.

Certainly among the worst on this site. Aside from their awful uniforms, I never had a problem with the Flames. Poor Perro lives among these people.

Jets fans are the best and that's because I never hear a peep out of them.

My favorite part of the debate is that no one seems to grasp the problem if you believe that he was "out of it" and experiencing issues with consciousness. He played his very next shift and never left the game.

So if you believe that he was experiencing trauma from the hit, particularly head trauma...then the Flames violated concussion protocol by letting him continue to play.

Him slamming his stick on the ice moments before probably didn't help either. I'd really love to give him the benefit of the doubt, but I just can't because it looks too premeditated . He could get a 10 game suspension if not longer.
 
NHL Coaches: "Drew Doughty is the league's best defenseman."

HF Sens poster: "Who the hell are these coaches to tell me what to think? I'm allowed to have my opinion, dammit! None of these West coast coaches even watch Karlsson play. If they did then he would have won unanimously."

Hell I'm a Ducks fan and I've never wanted to see a King win (the Norris) so much in my life.

The coaches were right last year. This year they're wrong. Fun how that works.

At the games they are pretty cordial. I think it's like every where there are good and bad fans (just look at me getting PM'd by an Avalanche fan of all things), last year a lot of the bad Flames fans came out of the woodwork.
This year they are likely eating crow.

Unfortunately my boss is a bad one who has the most idiotic chirps.
 
I think we just need to face the facts: the kings are an overrated team with an overrated goalie playing in front of an overrated defense along with overrated forwards. We're just a system team with a system goalie, drew doughty is lucky to even skate in the same arenas that karlsson has skated in, and we just lucked our way to two stanley cups. Oh and we can't forget how dirty we are, unlike poor innocent dennis wideman, and dustin brown always aims for the head, and tomahawk slashes are just accidents, unless the Kings were to do it.

The Kings are just an overrated dirty system team who just happen to get lucky.

Lots of posters on the main board placing Eichel ahead of Doughty as a superior #2 pick. Holy ****, this forum sometimes. :laugh:

It's just like the poll ranking McDavid as the best first overall pick from 2000-2015. The kid's played 12 games. Would it be too much to ask to wait a couple years until making such a bold declaration?

And they can weasel out of contacts whenever they feel like it. :shakehead
 
My god, the ridiculous statements that are made in that coaches poll thread...


"its because Doughty looks like a defenseman is supposed to look"
"i'm more right than an NHL coach is because I watch Karlsson play 82 games a year"

I feel like we're Gallileo trying to tell the church that the earth is round and they don't care what the facts or experts say
 
At this point, i just go on the boards just to agree with them and keep them going.

It's so much easier to join them than beat them, because they can't be tamed.

you, sir, are an enabler!


Martyros said:
Karlsson is miles ahead of Doughty. Doughty can't even defend a 3 on 1 properly like how Karlsson does.

I'm sorry but the coaches have no idea what they're talking about, regardless of how they actually study their opposition through hours of research on tapes to prepare for the match.

Blasphemy.

So you are a better talent evaluator of Erik Karlsson than Coach Q?

Erik Alfredsson said:
If I watch him 82 more times than he does I'd say I know more about Karlsson. If Coach Q watched him even 20 or 30 times I would say without a doubt him, but he probably doesn't have time to really analyze Karlsson like I do, nor would he care enough.
