No one here is saying they could do a better job as GM. All people are saying is that there are other potential GMs out there that could have better addressed the team's needs. Looking at other organizations like Dallas and Tampa, there is an argument to be made.

I think it's kind of funny that we have one thread blasting Holland for his lack of moves and "we like our team" mentality, and here we have everyone making a commotion about how they couldn't bear to see us lose ANY of our up and coming young players in an actual move.

Trading away Tatar is insanity.

Say it ain't so! I had to check the calendar to make sure it wasn't April 1st. -
Please let's cap the Kenny Holland retirement home program to one, being either Alfie or Iginila. I don't want to log jam the youngsters out any further. Especially with people also contemplating Cleary. Really wishing we had somehow retained Hossa at this point.

He looks skinny and he's a Leafs fan from Michigan. Hmm. But if you guys are excited, so am I.

Overpay and get him. The cap era has screwed over the players in every way except during unrestricted free agency. We're not going to fill the gap on defense by any other means so let's pony up.

Every year there are 10 top ten picks. Let's say they each stay in the league for a meager 5 years (probably more because top players usually last longer). That means there are at least 50 top ten picks around at one time. On average that is at least 1-2 per team, probably more if their careers are longer. This is another correlation does not equal causation trap.

The best goalie at wearing pads I ever saw.

Inventor looks to drastically shorten ice resurfacing time

Time doesn't seem to be the issue for the NHL, but I'm all for it if it might improve the ice surface for gameplay. -
Either this will be good for the Caps, or a disaster. Getting these guys to play to their weakness (defense) will be interesting to watch.

Blues re-sign Elliott, announce Miller won't be back
Seraph replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
I could totally see Holland biting on this in replacement of Monster. People on here used to talk about how badly this guy wanted to play for us and with his brother. Not saying it'd necessarily be the best move. We all know how much Holland loves players who are mildly past their prime. -
I've always supported a team in the pacific northwest. They're so bored that soccer is huge there. I think they'd rally around a hockey team pretty easy.

Nyquist since Datsyuk's Return & Unnatural NHL Development
Seraph replied to gcom007's topic in General
I'd imagine this is pretty regular stuff in the day to day of being a hockey player. He will have to adjust and find his role again, like any good hockey player. Just be glad we know what he is capable of and Babcock can play him with a lot of confidence. -
I doubt Stevie will uproot his family again to turn his back on the franchise that gave him a shot as GM. I think he'll stay true to the Bolts and enjoy his retirement from playing in Florida.

It's a herniated disc. He'll be fine.
-
Yeah, no thanks. No need to plug up a defensive spot with a 40 year old. Let the kids strive for it, and if they can't get the job done, find a long term solution.

In the states, hockey has a cult following. We all pack the stadiums but don't have the numbers to compete in TV ratings. There will always be more casual fans of the other major sports. That's all this is saying.
-
Awesome GDT. We've had all sorts of creative losing streaks in regulation, OT, shootout, and blown leads. Let's get some sort of winning streak this year guys. Let's go Wings!
-
Zetterberg is not as flashy. But if you pay attention to what he does you really see how smart a player he is, plus he's an absolute beast on the puck. I have never seen a player hold onto and defend a puck like this guy. Overall I think he is far underrated compared go Datsyuk, but I do give Datsyuk the edge if you twist my arm.

gdt 1/1 Winter Classic 2014 GDT: Maple Leafs 3, Red Wings 2 (F/SO)
Seraph replied to MabusIncarnate's topic in General
For people who went, how was the view? I always thought the downside of playing in a giant football stadium would be that you couldn't see the puck way in the back. -

Seraph replied to MabusIncarnate's topic in General
We lost but played good hockey. You can't make 3 big mistakes in a shootout and expect to stay in it. -
Just by supply and demand his price would be ridiculous on the open market. He has a big name so it comes with a big price. To think he would sign anywhere for less than 6 million a year for 5 years would be silly. Not a gross overpayment when you think of the context.
-
So weird. Sometimes they call off a goal with "intent to blow a whistle" because they lose sight of it, and other times they just don't make a call and take it to video review??
-
I was wondering why we weren't seeing as many Babcock speeches in the locker room until I saw him kick the camera crew the eff out. Then I wasn't wondering anymore.
