COACHELLA VALLEY FRIED CHICKEN

Didn't realize how much they poked the bear again. Their local media shat on the town of Hershey, of course their mascot dressed in a bear costume and did the roar, and their fans threw popcorn on the Bears' family members that were flown out for game 5.

Streamed the ceremony, I was surprised to hear the popcorn thing, pretty classless. That was fantastic they trolled Cleveland for mocking the roar and then really trolled Coachella with the fried Fuego lolol

I’m not surprised whatsoever. Those CV fans are some of the most disrespectful fans I’ve ever seen. That place will see their attendance plummet when the Firebirds have one down year.

Got about 18 signatures. Players were paired up at tables. Some of the lines themselves were clusters, but the event itself was MUCH better organized than last year. Bummed to have not gotten Roe but he had a big line.

YESSSSSSSSS THE COACHELLA VALLEY FRIED CHICKEN WAS LEGENDARY

Shepard is basically a folk singer from the late 60s from a Humbolt County commune.

Idk what to do without hockey now. Thankfully only a few months since we made it all the way to the end. These past two years have been so fun though, I'm definitely a fan for life

Grant Potulny, who played for the Bears in the 2007-08 season, has just been hired as the new head coach for the Wolf Pack.

I remember that name.

 

[Strawberry Fields]

His brother Ryan also played for the Bears.

 

[Hivemind]

I remember the Potulny's from back when I played the EA NHL games, and seeing them in the farm system with Hershey.

That chicken does look good.

 

[Strawberry Fields]

Ryan was a classic tweener who could put up big AHL numbers but never stuck in the NHL... though his career stats aren't bad at all and he put up a .5 PPG season with the Oilers at the height of their dark ages. His AHL numbers trailed off significantly at the end of his North American career. I can't remember if he had injury trouble or not. Grant was more of an AHL middle 6er.

Are we gonna see any Bears players at this draft tonight?

For next season? Probably not but Leason is a recent example of a draft pick who went right to Hershey so it’s possible

Apologies to Hershey, but I really hope the Caps don't draft anymore overage prospects. Those picks never pan out except for the AHL squad.

Oh agreed. I’d rather Hershey fill in those cracks with AHL guys if needed. Leason is the only one who came to mind immediately. He did put up 22 points in 68 games last year in Anaheim so he wasn’t exactly a bust…..yet

Goalies are the one area I would make an exception to this.
