I dont know what's worse, a person creating a fake persona on a message board and trying to push it forward 6 months after he had a hissy fit? Or, a person who really is successful seeking validation on a message board. Either way, both are sad. Just stop. Or go on another rant about how great you are, I really don't care

If he makes the team he'd be a SilverHawk

Pretty good video, sparked some emotions, mostly laughs enjoy

How has this loser not been banned yet?

Oh my God what an incredibly stupid thing to say about investments. Is this some of that "working class wisdom" someone mentioned earlier? Obviously you have no investments to speak of and/or know nothing about them. Remember Brexit? I lost about 2% of my total investments in a day. Why, because I have a well balanced asset allocation. 101 investment there bucko. Instead of running for the hills I bought even more international stock index funds (always buy low and sell high) and I have made a killing - about $200k. Perhaps my late reply serves my point. Rather than wasting endless hours writing 1000-2000 word simple minded tomes and believing my self-esteem, or anything of any real-world value, is tied to my participation in something as banal as a hockey forum, I have spent the past few months being a productive member of society and increasing my net worth. So many of your long-winded assumptions are so simple minded and utterly predictable. 1. That I am a phoney. Trust me I have money. Am I the richest person you ever met? Of course not. However, I make a good six figure salary, have saved/invested 30% or more of my salary for 25 years resulting in a multiple seven figure retirement fund. If that makes you envious, then get off your a$$ ike I did. 2. That I only value money and am a sad lonely person. I have an advanced degree and paid for 100% of my education myself. My work has benefited people both directly and invaluably as well as collectively in via published and highly cited research contributing to human knowledge. I did none of this alone, but with many other hard working people. I could have made MUCH more in industry. I have plenty of friends and family too. Money is not the end for me, it is the means to have control of my life so I can help those I care about. My point from the beginning was this forum has its little in-groups and self-anointed gurus whose big accomplishment in life has been exceeding the 1,000 post mark. Can you imagine these jokers doing this at “work” all day? Some job huh? if you find yourself thinking this is a good job to have, I have a hint. Loser. For those aspiring to be “in” - there is a better way. Accomplish something REAL in the WORLD. When you do, like I have, your forum heroes are revealed as a sad pathetic joke. People who spend what must be an hour or two a day posting “well crafted” arguments that accomplish... what? Absolutely zero. Take that same hour or two a day toward learning R, SQL, Python, html… and add some math, statistics or business. In six months to a year, instead of racking up a collection of meaningless online hockey buddies (and adversaries), you will open the door to making good money, having a real career and being your own boss. It is plain as day. Your "leaders" here are real life losers.

This was legit my fav cartoon as a kid!!

With the way some fans talk about him, we would've won 2-3 cups in 2010 alone!

this makes me sad, Drew was and is a warrior for the Wings. I will be unhappy to see him have a great year in (bleah) CHI.

Mr. I wanted Steve as the GM period. There is no indication if he was on board with a rebuild or not also fact. The video is telling the truth in a funny and entertaining way whether some people like it or not. Thankfully for the Wings the next draft should be better and they alongside Vegas should have the best odds at the first overall pick. Also if people wouldn't bring up the lame excuse of missing the playoffs for the first time there wouldn't be a need to remind them of what was sacrificed for that.

I'm confused by this... Why wouldn't I admit this? That has been the expectations here forever now... I just don't agree with it. Players should be willing and capable of playing some level of defense, but not every player should be scrutinized for a lack of defense, if they're providing offense. The way I see it, players should be evaluated based on whether or not they're providing the team with more positives or negatives. Take Mantha for example, I don't think coaching / management should tell him to concentrate on defense, because he's a big time offensive weapon. It's more beneficial to the team to have Mantha concentrate purely on offense, scoring 30 goals, 60 points than it is for him to play a two-way game scoring 20 goals, 40 points. As long as he's doing more good than bad, it's good for the team. A player like Glendening on the other hand, damn well better be playing lights out defense, because he's a disaster in the offensive zone.

Why does that matter when he's played mostly on the wing and looks like that's where the Wings will likely play him in the future?
