Butternubs scutched a blaze.

Thank you Randy, it's tiring to have every other thread being bogged down by "I hate Sullivan" or "Nieto sucks" or "Why isn't Puljujarvi playing?".

Seeing the prospect and draft thread get swamped with "Sullivan is going to ruin whoever they draft" all of the time is super annoying.

I hate Neato.

 

[Malkinstheman]

Nieto sucks donkey balls

 

[McGroarty2]

Nieto sucks moose knuckles.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

I don't care for the new arena.

With everyone losing in the East tonight we are really close to being back in the playoff conversation with a win over the Rangers lol

From what I can tell, a regulation win would actually put us in WC2, albeit with many more games played than most other teams.

I'm just glad putting all the complaining here makes the problems go away. Thanks Randy, you saved the season!

 

[Duffy13]

I'm tired of winning.... I want to get back to complaining about coaching, GMing, trades, call up and send downs, line ups, Getzoff, Bourque sounding like the worst mature whiskey drinking cigar smoking cougar at the bar, Sids Moustache, Rust being a lizy shit, Jarry allowing first shot goals, Ned somehow starting the game down 2 before the 1st puck drop.

I mean like... Cmon guys... just, C'mon

There should be a fire Sullivan thread. Half the posts on this board this season are in the form of "yeah, but Sully is the coach...."

 

[McGroarty2]

Nieto is still useless.

Nieto is still useless.

Yeah but some people don't like other people saying it. It takes away from posting numbers and snake oil stats.

 

[BusinessGoose]

It's all part of the seven year plan

ALL of it

ALL of it

Damn it! I thought it was 7 years to formulate the 7 year plan. Thus $80 mil. So

 

[molon labe]

I don't particularly care for the roster construction of these Pittsburgh Penguins.

 

[SEALBound]

I'm mad that our core players are old and can no longer carry a team.

Being made that Nieto is blocking a guy like Glass, Puljujarvi, or Ponomorov is just dancing around the real problem. Let's face it, Nieto is irrelevant.

 

[HandshakeLine]

Being mad that players get old is equally irrelevant. At least Nieto can be scratched or waived.

Anyhow, we're all just dancing around the fact that one day we die anyhow, so why not add a few more dance moves to the ol' repertoire?

If they scratched Nieto for Puljujarvi and we still lost, would you feel different? I was asking myself that the other day. Say Dubas did the following:

Fired Sullivan and Quinn, promoted Kirk MacDonald.
Waived Nieto
Traded Hayes and Acciari
Sent Jarry off for FCs.

Raks-Sid-Rust
DOC-Malkin-Tomasino
Bunting-Lizotte-Beauvillier
Puljujarvi-Glass-Ponomorov/Poulin

Pickering-Letang
Petts/Gryz-Karlsson
Shea-JSI

Blomqvist-Neds

for the rest of the year and we finish bottom 5. Are we mad? Or...?

 

[Dennis Reynolds]

Since today is a game day, I'm not sure where to complain about Nieto. Please advise.

I mean, I would feel better in that we tried something even if it didn't work. My main issue is we're not tanking, nor are we trying to ice the best team possible. It's just stupid.

Make sure it's in the right thread, wherever it is. Inconveniencing someone by making them skip a post is one of the worst crimes you can possibly commit on the internet.
