It's always a head shake when the ignorant here post the Bruins need to stop hiring Bruins guys when all they seem to do are hire people with New Jersey connections

Yes he is

Lou was a big Bruins fan and I believed lived in Weymouth at one time

 

[DKH]

I knew that lol

I was thinking of Kevin Dean

My cousin spouse who played for the Black Bears would not be happy

Good addition.

He should be a younger option than Essensa if Khudobin gets hurt and Rask forgets to take his Imodium.

Honestly these types of comments really distract from this forum.

People that give opinions on a hockey forum that differ from your own, or perhaps even post erroneous statements, don't deserve to be called ignorant from a total stranger who, quite frankly, has had his own share of missteps through the years.

They don't deserve to be called ignorant by anyone for that matter.

There has been a disturbing trend by a few posters here in recent times where the insult rhetoric has become very much the norm.

It's not a good look.

I`ve had moments of ignorance but I totally understand what my friend DKH is speaking to in this context. There are more than just a handful of posters here who chime in on the Bruins hirings and use the a term like "old boys club" or seem convinced that the B`s hire essentially only former Bruin players which is just inaccurate.

Now, I wasn`t paying attention and didn`t realize how many former Devils they have hired, quite interesting to be honest and while I`ll let DKH speak for himself, I`m on his side on this one, there are still many who`ll continue to claim the B`s fail to look outside of their comfort zone when hiring which isn`t correct IMO

This will show the naysayers who said that the B's wouldn't make a splash or a big acquisition this summer!

What he said

Can't we all just get along and enjoy the bountiful number of high end prospects Donny Hockey has accumulated instead of reminding me of my many mistepps that I've worked hard to surpress in my mind

AND considering we all are Bruin fans, we should have each others backs instead of jumping on everything, picking apart every post and trying to find something to complain about. This is an awesome time to be a Bruin fan and honestly, I've never been more excited for camp to open and I'm 54 so I've been around for a few of them. All those prospects like DKH said, exciting times, enjoy it everyone!!! And we all make mistepps partner, be easy on yourself lol
