Another loss. This is not good, our offense just ins't there. I shutter at the thought of the playoffs. I hope I am wrong, I pray I am wrong, but i don't think I am.

Wow, way to show him. Not only did you debunk his argument, you did so in such an intelligent and compelling way. Haha, yaaaaa.

SAMMY!

The call was bad, horrible actually. But I think we have a bigger problem then that. That being our complete inability to generate offense

What do you guys think? Do we have guys that can put the puck in the net frequenlty enough to do well in the playoffs? I mean realistically, not on a prayer of flip or hudler "catching fire".

GOD I CAN'T Wait For the Playoffs!!!

Stuart looks good for sure, the team is hustling, their offense just isn't at the level to overcome a team like san jose, or at least that is what it looks like.

Even more importantly; unless she is the one making 7 figures in the relationship, I don't really think she should have much say where they live.

"We gave up a 2nd and a 4th for a guy who could be as good as our 3/4 d-man. How can anyone complain? Oh, thats right, because his name isn't Hossa." No, it really has nothing to do with Stuart. Well I can only speak for myself, but the reason I was upset was because it was painfully obvious months running up to the deadline that we needed secondary scoring. So what do we do? Sign Stuart. Who yes is a good D-man, I don't know where you get 3/4 d-man, I mean what do you base that on, or are you purely spculating in order to make your "witty" argument sound better.

I thought it did really good considering how much was going on, and how fast it was happening. Man, do you know how much your Alexa rating is going to jump, or what kind of adsense numbers. Good job, great site, and thanks for everything. Cheers!!!

Know the game? Haha, ya. Like yourself, I take it you "know the game" better then me? I think not you nit. In fact I think it is safe to say I have forgotten more about the game then you will ever know. I remember you, you were one of the anti fighting cry babies lobbying about how much of a waste it would be to bring a fighter in. Yup, that was you. As for you thinking I am a ****** bag, sweet. Seeing as though I don't particularly like you in the slightest, the fact I am annoying/upsetting you really causes me no worries. Now if it were a member of the forum who I respected, which is about 95% of the members including half the people I am arguing with, who said I was acting in that way I would apologize via pm or just stop. But you're punk a*s, not a chance.

In head to head comparisons as Krause was doing he had Lidstrom > Neidermier and Pronger > Lilja. Which I agree with . When I re did the comparisons is switched Neidermier and Pronger by accident, but it didn' t make a inkling of difference in the final tally USING THAT COMPARISON METHOD.

True, I will agree with that for sure.

heralded player in the same sense Griogenko (sp?) was? I mean I understand the guy can play the game, I just dp not see any way people can argue that this was a good day for the wings. He is a role player, I mean if we wanted the physical d-man who could move the puck why the heck didn't we sign Markov with the extra money we DIDN't spend today.

"too bad in the original, you were comparing Pronger and Lidstrom and Niedermayer with Lilja" It doesn't matter which one you match up with the other it is a split Lidstrom is better then both Pronger and Neidermier, and both Neidermier and Pronger are better then Lilja. Chew on that, you poor thing. As for spelling, I could care less what you have to say, you are not my English professor, or hiring me for a job. Stuart better then O'Donnel????? YES, YOU GET IT. Lebda beats no one, he is a waste.

I was simply pointing out he was wrong, thats all. And don't you have some work to do, that is in actually making an argument for your case that stuart was a good pickup

He is average (at best) depth defensemen. There is absolutely nothing that he has done (besides his ability to constantly be traded) which would signal his "exceptional" ability. He is decent, will he make an impact, not, and if he does it will be equivalent to cory cross's.

Bergeron>Chelios (same matchup you had) O'Donnel>Stuart (same match up you had) Kronners & Beauchemin (even) (same matchup you had) Rafalski & Schneider EVEN (same match up you had) Lidstrom > Neidermeier Lilja & Lebda combined < Pronger **FIXED TO SAME MATCHUPS & LOOK THE SAME OUTCOME** Thats 3-1-2 Edge Ana Smooth one Einstein

What do you base that on. His career numbers, his +/-, what?

Would you like to also go through and list every incidence of attack made by others on me. I mean jesus christ you have got to be kidding,. I was called a lot worse then what I was supposedly banned for (use of moron and dolt) And I was not lying about anything, I got banned because of my stance and the fact it wasn't the same as yours. Now this may be what you use to rationalize it, but I think we both know that to be what it is, nothing more then a front. Was everyone who attacked me personally banned? No, I know they weren't, so spare me. You didn't like my point of view, and the fact I was pretty much wiping the floor you and 95% of the people arguing animately against signing Downey, with only about 3-5 legitimate supporters arguing the same point I was. So you found a "reason" to ban me. Sorry but that doesn't make it legitimate. Oh ya, looks like I turned out right about Downey huh. Grrrrrrrr thats gotta grind your gears.

That is such a straw man argument it is disgusting. No one is claiming that they know more the Holland, they are though pointing out the fact that the man repeatedly told us and the team that we were saving up to grab a top 6 forward at the deadline. When we were starting the new year it was becoming clear that we needed some help in the secondary point production aspect of our lineup, he had plenty of time to do his thing and he didn't. " would rather see this team good for a long time then give up a lot for a "big run" now." Well then how many years are you content with failing in the playoffs before you are willing to make a move that will actually have some shade of benefit behind it. Good lord, quite a few teams landed new additions that brought offensive prowess today, they didn't "give up their future" So please, stop with you finger wagging.

Woulda, coulda, shoulda, they werent healthy and we didnt even make it to the cup. No use in basing an argument on "what ifs"

You're out of your mind bro if you belive that. Bergeron>Chelios O'Donnel>Stuart Kronners & Beauchemin (even) Rafalski & Schneider ( i guess i might give you this one, however I would say they were even) Lidstrom > Pronger Lilja & Lebda combined < Neidermeier Thats 3-1-2 Edge Ana

The names you mentioned are the ones who got me banned for a long ass time over the summer because I was one of the "we need a tough guy, and then sign Downey" people. Needless to say they did not agree, and post after post I proved my point with raw stats, and what not. Eventually I try to log in and was banned, then the day I became unbanned, before I even got a chance to post they did it again. They are definitely fickle about their censorship of opinion here, thats why I just try to steer clear.

Ya I am not saying that exactly, I am just saying that we had so many variables, plus the 5 million to work with we could have done better, and at least added some sort of offensive threat.
