Out of town thread: Where the grass is ALWAYS greener!

More **** going on in Calgary.

Not condoning it but old time hockey used to be riveting, there was real animosity. Now, it's looking more like the occasional skirmish between fellow union members.

The round table on Sportsnet is replaying the circus act right now.

It’s crazy how AA was gonna play in the KHL and NHL gms wouldn’t make a deal for him.

We'll I guess since you've decided that...there's nothing else for me to add then.

You've spoken...I mean, you've even decided what my OWN words mean.

So sounds like you got this covered.

When did you become so damn touchy?
You wrote a post saying how poor you is getting picked on no matter what you say. That when some see "417" well darn, let's pick on his post.
I mean sure, you can think part of the HF community is out to get you. Once you get over yourself a bit, maybe realize your delivery isn't as clear as you might think.
I provided you with proof of you saying You never meant that Radu wouldn't improve a team yet you literally wrote that Dallas would not be better with him.

I mean really....enough of this victimization card you like to play and make your posts clearer. Nobody is out to get you. If what you mean is not that he would not improve a team, then stop saying Dallas isn't better with him. Pretty simple.

Mantha has 10 goals in 19 games. He had a really poor first year as pro, so much so he was called out by Holland & the coaching staff.

He spent 2 full years in the AHL, but had a solid rookie season for the Wings last year. Now in his 4th year pro, he sure looks like he's arrived.

Hoffman was the same in Ottawa. Hopefully, Scherbak can follow their lead.

With Mantha, AA, Larkin & Nyqvist upfront, Wings are starting to develop some good young talent again.

Historically their drafting has been top notch, and have enjoyed great pro scouting as well.

Lol I can’t believe a few wanted him to sign here

Stamkos - Kucherov strike again.

[update] Sergachev with 5th.

 

[Kimota]

What did he do for us last year?

I was under the impression the Habs bowed out of the 1st round?

They could do that this year without Radulov

Was really the only player that showed up in the playoffs.

On his thread on the Bruins board, they already have the buyout calculated.

Ouch!

Goals in goals out bro. Best strategy ever elaborated by a GM.

 

[Adonis Creed]

Sergachev would be top scorer now...

 

[Et le But]

Sergachev outperforming both Drouin and Weber, impressive.

 

[MaxDummy]

Preds chocking hard in the third lol. 2 precious points lost

CJ can give Laviolette some advice on how to blame AHL call-ups for blowing leads and costing 2 points.

Playing 26 minutes a night. Too much maybe?

As an added lure for suckers looking for a savior, there were The Pointe Saint-Charles Nostalgia Waterworks that played with people's emotions.

The First came in the form of Bergevin, then Assistant GM for the Hawks, featured in a report (I believe it was RDS) where he had been asked if he missed Quebec. And he ensued with the story of how he took the Stanley Cup he had won as part of Hawks's management and how he brought it to Pointe Saint Charles and how he used it in a manner very personal to him and his family. And then cried on camera.

The Second, came on live TV, on RDS as he was a blue couch filler, the night that he fraternized with Therrien. And, Therrien probably having seen the above report, pulled the same low hanging strings and got Bergevin to cry again.

The foxhole pair . Turned off a lot of die hard Hab fans. You have to be pretty bad to pull that off.

Couple of fights that escalated into a scrum with a few cheap shots. Tkachuk was tossed for a spear that couldn't be seen in replays. He's chippy as hell so I'm not surprised.

Barely touched him.

I wouldn't make fun. We have Alzner at $4.6 for the next 5.

Impressive.

Thank God the Bruins seem to be as atrocious as the Habs recently, this is the only silver lining to what's going on right now. We might have given up PK, Ghetto, Sergachev and other talented players, but the Bruins also ensured their sustained mediocrity by giving away Seguin and Dougie.

Where is there making fun in that post?

If facts are bothersome to you , I would suggest the problem is not with the post.

I might be wrong here, but I believe Bergevin had approached him
That was when Bergevin wanted to get bigger up front
Then he got smaller
Now he has no idea which direction he is going in
