Forget Shannon Hogan, the Wings have a new reporter in the making.

You've got Smith playing twice on Defence. The third pairing is most likely Quincey and Kindl.

Stop the presses. Irrelevant goon complains that goons are becoming irrelevant!

I actually hope it is his final year here. I agree that he's probably the best coach in the game right now, but no matter how good you are there is a shelf life for coaching in any sport. He's been coaching the team for the better part of a decade and at this point I don't think his messages have the same effect on the team as they once did. Next year is Blashill's chance to show what he can do with an NHL team, for better or worse.

Yeah an enforcer would have pounded that rut right out of the ice and Mantha would be fine. You can always count on an enforcer to make sure the ice is at its highest quality.

It's not that simple to calculate, Most professional athletes keep a residence either in their home country or the United States which allows them to pay their taxes a little differently than the average person. Because not all of their money is earned within Canada they can only be taxed based on the income they make while playing at home or in another Canadian city. The rest of their tax would be payed to the government of the city/state/country their "official" residence is in. It all depends on what state you live in. Michigan's tax rate combined with the federal tax rate actually costs Alfredsson more than he would be paying in Ontario. On his 5.5 million contract he just finished he would have paid approximately 2.49 million in taxes. (45.3%) vs the maximum (42%) in Canada. Of course you also have to assume that professional athletes making that kind of money likely have a pretty good accountant and/or financial planner who helps them pay the lowest tax rate possible.

Holland like any other GM makes lots of moves I either hate or don't understand but at the end of the day I still think he's the best GM in the history of hockey. If ANY GM has earned enough trust to see a team through a rebuild its Holland.

There's no reason it can't be.

I've read that in a couple places but its just a claim made by a fan with no screenshot or any sort of proof that it's a legitimate email from anyone within the organization. For all we know it was made up by the person that originally made the claim in the first place.

As talented as he is, this is what it might look like when Holland and Babs are handing out the roster spots after training camp.

Right now I'm currently locked in a very tight back and forth Battle with the Philadelphia Flyers in the semi-finals of the competition. I need help getting votes to move on to meet the Sharks in the finals. Not only is their GDT a wall of text they have been quite disrespectful towards my work. You need to have an HFboards account already to vote, but if you have one please follow the link cast your vote http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/showthread.php?t=1704317 Thanks for any help you can give me.

Someone has to class that place up a bit...Charity work is a good way to describe it.

This reminds me of a GDT I did earlier this year called the "Ken Commandments"

Matt's stingier than Holland, he doesn't hand them out like candy

It's even better with the accompanying song.

I was able to quickly fix their direction of travel

...i was hoping nobody would notice. Imageready doesn't have the best color editing tools so I couldn't make his hand white. The best I could do was grey so I just left it hoping nobody would notice. Even stranger was that you noticed the black hand but not the fact that they are moving backwards

Don't worry Kenny's got a firm grip on the wheel.

I'm using an old school version of Photoshop. (Photoshop 7) Also a big thank you to everyone for their comments and for the votes. I won by a pretty fair margin by the time voting closed, so at least there was some positive to go along with the Cleary debacle.

So how are things? good right...I didn't miss any news? Perhaps some gifs will cheer everyone up.

So far I trail by a single vote with the trophy being handed out at 9 tonight. I might just be able to pull off the upset.

Apparently its based on a popular cartoon called Adventure time. I hadn't heard of it either, and its nowhere near as good as some of his other work. http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/showthread.php?t=1347107&highlight= http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/showthread.php?t=1332989&highlight= http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/showthread.php?t=1327807&highlight= http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/showthread.php?t=1115195&highlight= http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/showthread.php?t=875703&highlight= http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/showthread.php?t=865892&highlight=

Thanks to everyone who helped me make it to the finals. I'm now facing a professional graphic designer and the person who taught me how to do my GDT's in HFboard 24 image style. At this point I don't mind losing at all, but if you'd like to cast your vote for me or Slocal of the Sharks here is the place to vote. http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/showthread.php?p=87794393#post87794393 Thanks again for helping to defeat the Flyers and for getting me to my first Waffle Cup final. Last year my run ended in the Conference Championships vs Montreal.

Nope never taken the time to compile THAT much history. Besides I kind of look at it like plagarism. He didn't write one word of it, he just took it from other sites and puts it into 1 post. As someone else mentioned in this thread, he only has to do each one once, and save it somewhere on his computer. The exact same post gets used next time they face the team, but with the tiny addition of whatever happened in their last game.

I would happily make them longer and when I do them here I do make them longer because this board is light years better at dealing with images. HFboards doesn't let you upload 1 big image like I can do here, and you can't put more than 24 in a single post. Any image bigger than 350px by 300 px will be scaled down to a thumbnail which defeats the purpose of doing a GDT. That GDT is actually 1 image sliced into 24 images and posted painstakingly so they all line-up.
