    I pretty much guarantee it has nothing with an enforcer type argument. It's that Tanguay has been consistently considered on every team he has been on to be lazy as s***. This site, this fanbase, this organization needs to rid themselves of these players. Plus, is he really that good anyway???

    More effective and worth the effort for Eager to see that than the green dudes. Just sayin'.

    What I realize when I see this pic is a guy I want to see in the winged wheel more than any UFA coming this off season. Might be out of reach but hell, it's a big big need. Marleau was trying to show the team something here and while I sort of understand it, wrong move.

    Anyways, we are definitely in for a tough game in the tank tomorrow night. I can imagine that the Nucks will come out firing on all cylinders again. The Sharks gave their best effort in game 1, imo and came up with nothing.

    Woops, my apologies. Scolded. Hopefully SJ can actually make this a damn series....
  8. From Dec. 27 to Jan. 11, there was a ratings drop of 4 million households due in part to the loss of Crosby and Hudler's emergence. The stats can't be refuted.

    Correct, we would have to unload a king's ransom to make it work. His playoff performance will no doubt get him a solid payday. Still, it's off season, so pipe dreaming is rampant.

    Pitkanen and Ehrhoff get way more pub for whatever reason on here. Bieksa actually fills a need for the Wings.

    Maybe so but this was the obvious move. A new scheme and fresh face in that position will be a welcomed thing. Next up is that defenseman we have needed. Whether it happens or not is to be seen but as another poster had put it, the changes start right here.

    I am totally with you on this. The curmudgeons still won't bring us down!!!!!!

    Goodness, harold. The guy can play hockey, just hopefully not here. Are we happy?

    They just know who is available for the position. I still just feel it is more likely to be Cheli, but he might not want to get back into the full activity of the operations as of yet. He does keep that stellar tan all year by jetting to his Cali home often. Regardless, anyone at this point should be an upgrade.

    It's the off season, Harold. Hyperbole encouraged!!!!!!

    has been with the org for a long time now... Love the guy. Probably won't work but yet another suggestion.

    Beat me to it! We might need coherent sober coaches on the bench but, I do like his insight and think he would even be an upgrade.

    I enjoy these lines thoroughly. I would almost think Kronner moves up to first pairing to limit Lids' minutes a tad and have Kron with Bieker. Yep, its hockey, I have to give nicknames almost immediately.

    Thought so until he came out on the diving stuff. I think he would in fact be the perfect fit. He has been absolutely stellar lately and if he was with Kronner??? Psshhh, yes please.

    As a heterosexual man, I cannot find myself in that thread other than my actual pics. Just sayin'.

    Any chance it's Cheli's job already or too soon? Not saying I'd want that, just something that crossed my mind.
