When the next whiz kid pops up, make note of the absolute slobbering that goes on about them, falling short of expectations and then the scapegoating for their lack of success.

In this case we also have a pretty good idea that Dubas' reliance on statistics got him rooked in the Kadri trade.

I mean if you only pay attention to the failures than yeah I can see why you would think the way you do.

Oof. I’ve defended Jarmo in the past, but I can’t defend him here. Unless evidence comes out that this was ownership and/or Davidson, this is on him.

Shame on the Jackets for bringing that son of a bitch back into the NHL. I realize it was inevitable but it’s still bullshit.

Oh man, Babcock? That's a bridge too far for me. I hope for Columbus fan's sake he's shown the door soon now. Bringing in Mike Babcock is not going to go well.

It's not ownership, Jarmo is in charge, that's his decision.

That team is going to suck to play for worse than Torts lol. That will be interesting.. They will be the light at the end of the tunnel if a player is willing to work his ass off and does not care where or how he's asked to play to make it though.

Ottawa and Roy are made for each other. I may actually have time to watch them too. It will be a beautiful journey failure or success tho lol.

I love this comparison. Not the DeAngelo since he's a different level. But the Byram and Z. Spot on.

I was referring to two different aspects with that hashtag, I believe players fall into two categories between arrogance and pride. DeAngelo is more on the arrogant side while Zadorov is more on the prideful side. I do think there is a difference between the two in hockey, the more arrogant you are, the more you will value yourself and your talent to a team (makes you more of a puck hog), while prideful is having faith in your ability to win games to help your team, but you're still a good teammate and not rising yourself above someone else. You might consider yourself better than others, but you keep those thoughts subconsciously in the id.
