We're both out of the playoffs running AND the Bedard sweepstakes somehow.

The fact that JR couldn't look at VAN's CapFriendly page before taking the job is evidence he's not fit to do it.
this is the most important part of their job though. if you were extraordinary at cap management and mediocre to average at every other part of the job you'd probably be a perennial playoff team
Boeser was full value for being a healthy scratch...Boudreau was obviously unaware that it was Hockey Fights Cancer night.He lost me at sitting Boeser was a bad thing. This list sucks.
That's because there's only like 200 people in the world who are "qualified" to run NHL teams (AKA nepotism or in the Old Boys Club).I tend to agree with both of the above although it seems more than half the teams are being managed by people who are bad at cap management and counting on future cap increases to fix their issues.

Easy to miss any of the "nights" dedicated to something now, a marketing tool to try to attract fans and distract fan anger.Boeser was full value for being a healthy scratch...Boudreau was obviously unaware that it was Hockey Fights Cancer night.

Why are you ranting about special team nights…?..Easy to miss any of the "nights" dedicated to something now, a marketing tool to try to attract fans and distract fan anger.
Is there any non specials? How many times have the Sedins been honored now?
They just better not trade off Gino's death, that would be so shallow and disrespectful.

Game night specials, like "Tonight we honor Puppy Dog Night for animal owners? or "The Sedins retired 5 years ago tonight recognition night""The 1982 Remeberance cup run night" "The 1994 Cup run night" "Ukrainian Night" "Celebration of light night"Why are you ranting about special team nights…?..
No, just 6 years and did not represent any NHL players. What other NHL experience did she have besides being an intern?She was a player agent and had worked as one for 8 years, has a bachelor in finance and a law degree. It's a bit disingenuous to claim she's a nobody who went from an internship to AGM, no?
I didn't say boo about her gender, but I guess you want to play that card. What experience did she have in the NHL? For example name someone who was a player agent for even a junior team player that went right to AGM?I imagine it's her degree in finance and experience as a player agent that landed her the role as AGM in charge of contracts/salary cap. Not her gender or any quota needing filling.
are there actually 23 themed nightsHey, it's only 23 theme nights this season. Bruce is perfectly welcome to field any roster he wants for the other 18 nights.

Can you imagine a male with the same credentials going to an AGM position that quickly?
I mean 6 years as an agent, a law degree, and a bachelors in finance seems like a pretty solid skillset to me for someone expected to handle the cap (finance) and contracts (law).No, just 6 years and did not represent any NHL players. What other NHL experience did she have besides being an intern?
Is it just me, or does everyone else expect that our attempt to sell players for the max once again goes like last years Miller sweepstakes, and we fail to trade anyone before the trade deadline, and we sign Horvat to some silly amount based on one season, and have to trade all of our draft picks to get rid of a couple of dead horses to meet the cap.
Exactly, guess he missed that part.On hockey fights cancer night. After his dad had a long losing battle with cancer. Scratch him any other night. Scratch him the rest of the season for all I care.
