Around The League Thread - 2026 Offseason

[Triumph]

I do not know why mods lock threads without starting new ones.

The Leafs hired Jim Hiller as their coach.

He any good?

My fault, I usually do start the new threads but forgot for both this and the team thread

 

[MadDevil]

I just find it funny that the Leafs did all those interviews and then hired a guy who already worked for them years ago as an assistant and has a history (although brief) of losing in the first round.

I ran a tighter ship when I was a mod
(please don't ask me to be a mod again).

Did it pay well?

I take it that's the reason the Utica Comets thread was railroaded into a share with Adirondack, a team that has no serious NJ prospects and gets little posing on the NJ Devils site.

I'll make it work.

 

[thebeernerd]

Vote for me to be a mod so I can resign immediately after being appointed

This is a bit dramatic, a post here and there about Adirondack isn't going to make a major difference to that thread and fits better there than anywhere else.

How does one even become a mod in the first place?

In my case I was drafted lol (well it's an optional volunteer position, but still it's not like there's a mod school you go to).

Wait, you didn't have to do a physical test!? That's where I failed in my application.

Yea, because they kept saying "no physical, pull your pants back up" and you wouldn't listen.

Great deal from SJS

I got a pm one day asking if I wanted to be a mod. That was it. I said yes, should have said no.

The only thing I can gather is that none of the mods made a comic strip about Vitaly Vishnevski.

The Vish stuff was fantastic but the toilet paper lineup I did has to count for something.

One of the favorite NHL player puns I've made up is "Michael Goatsering."

Good deal for the Sharks because their back end is awful.

Of all the subboards to be a mod, ours has to be the most difficult or entertaining depending on your view of things.

It requires equal parts "knowing when to shut down or roll with the same arguments being had for the 500th time" and "respecting the shitposting and recurring memes"
