This guy was a respected hockeybuzz poster at one point lol. Clout is the hardest drug on earth
He's huffing the teams propaganda farts so hard it's insane.

He's swearing that the team is run on merit, Torts is going to fix the "accountability problems", and nothing that's happened in the past matters because Torts is here now.

Doesn't matter what they think is going to happen. As soon as we are a few months into this season, reality is going to kick their ass harder than Johnston kicked Attards.

And they’ll say it’s because guys like TK, Sanheim, and JVR are soft, lazy, aren’t buying in, and whatever other bullshit.

They’re never going to come to the right conclusion. They’re dug into their ignorance foxholes.

The thing is about 'being a rising star' in journalism and media, is that it really is the people (us) who decide that. How did Eklund come to be?
I believe on a stage? He was a keyboard player. There's a pic out there somewhere

I'm not sure if this is rhetorical to prove a point (if it is I'd love to be clued in because I don't remember the start of eklund), but his dedicated site definitely had something to do with that. He marketed himself as a product, being anonymous and whatnot. Love or hate him, he perfectly played his following into a business. This post has no point really, just an observation of how he differs in a unique way

It’s not rhetorical and you’re mainly right. He just kept saying the same thing over and over, for like a year, until one day he was right. People who defended him said ‘well, he’s just saying what he’s hearing, why is that a problem?’ and people decided he was right after being wrong a million times in a row, and gave him enough attention for no materially sound reason until people inside the industry decided they could use him. Thankfully he takes up far less air than he once did.

Why do the native rain dances work? Because they didn’t stop dancing until it started raining.

It was really a microcosm for the downfall of trust in media to come.

The team is run on merit. But that merit is predicated on toughness and working hard. Those are important traits in a physical sport like hockey - no doubt. But so is skill, which is seemingly ignored by mgmt.

don’t ask why…

Got into it with a few questions, to Myrtetus/Dimarco on the live chat portion of the stick2hockey podcast.

Mentioned how fans are upset because the Flyers continue this path of perpetual retool after perpetual retool, not committing to a true rebuild to acquire high end talent. That fans could handle a rebuild of there was transparency.

JM: “Bullshit”

:laugh:

They one billion percent could handle it.

Hell, even if it's complete bullshit they should just tell us that's what they're doing this year. Put out a statement even if they don't actually mean it. That would give them some room because they're going to be AWFUL anyway.

There is literal tangible, demonstrative evidence to support this fact. The other franchise plays in the same god damn building. But the flyers are too smart to take hints from anyone else, which is bad when you’re the dumbest in the room.
