I like Utah Outlaws cause it do that thing where the words sound the same but theyre different Utah Buzzsaws Utah Bear Claws Utah Foi Gras Utah Maritime Laws Utah Quebecois Utah Bourgeois

And this is why the Bruins make the playoffs every year. Brad starts pro-hypno brainwasing day 1. Someone send this article to Dylan and Mo. Personally I prefer the babcockian approach: If you ladies leave my rink, if you survive prospect training, you will be a shopwrecker. You will be a minister of truculence praying for scrums. But until that day, you are LGW whipping boys. You are the lowest form of life on the internet. You are not even human fuqqing beings. You are nothing but unorganized puck-watching pieces of floater shid! Because I am hard, you will not like me. But the more you hate me, the more you will learn. I am hard but I am fair. There is no xenophobic bigotry here. I do not look down on Svens, Teemus, Slavas or Jean-Claudes. Here you are all equally worthless. And my orders are to weed out all benders who do not pack the gear to serve in my beloved Wheel. Do you pigeons understand that?

I dont have much interest in Chychrun at this point. The Sens team average was -5, and Chychrun is sporting a team worst -30. And when you consider that he led their defense in even strength points, that makes it even worse. The guy is letting A LOT of goals into his own net. Yzerman wants to improve overall team D, not pick up guys like this. Pretty much everyone who has come out of that Coyotes team in the last several years has played much worse after leaving. The only one I can think of that didnt is Domi. But then even he had a sharp decline after his first and only big year with the habs. Buyer beware on Chychrun. IMO id rather pick up a RHD in UFA than spend assets for a guy like this that is also ANOTHER LHer.

Youre joking but this is exactly how corporate teams are these days. Like Karaken rum being anncounced as the official drink/liquor of the Seattle team b4 they even announced the name.

Yeah hes French Dan Cleary. Daviel Clearron.

This exactly why I think we should take a step back, let Ghost and Kane go, and reload with youngsters. We want to build a Bruins team, and not a Leafs team that thinks they can spend their way to a cup. Bruins did it the right way, and despite every year folks saying "Bruins are about to collapse" here they are again. Because they built that culture and their young guys and UFAs are forced to buy into that culture. Leafs never accomplished or built anything besides drafting a few top guys then immedately trying to spend their way to the top. No one on that team has been there or done that and it shows. And thats exactly why we shouldnt knee jerk mortgage the future to push for a playoff run next year. Stay the course. Trust the plan.

We still have Perron. There was that interview with Newsy awhile back, sometime around our first skid, where Newsy said Perron stood up in the room and said OKAY, WERE GETTING 18 OF OUR NEXT 20 PTS, and Newsy said he was all like "David, lets keep it realistic" but then they went out and did exactly as Perron had declared they would. Thats why I want to at least keep Perron another season.

Dahlin, Pettersson, and Zabinejad are okay I guess. Id like to see us continue to exploit the growing Austro-German market instead. Seider, Kasper, Bicker... this is where the future draft steals will be had.

Yeah Yzerman is done "outscoring our problems". Subtracting Kane and Ghost is subtracting the two players who only want to play the offensive side of the puck. Its also probably about 10 million off our books. Burgers and Edvinsson taking their spots is the long term internal growth we want to push for.

Sweden has completely fallen off since then. Name one good swede in this league now. Hedman? Thats basically it. There isnt even a single swede projected to go in the first round this year. For petes sake theres a Norwegian that will be going in the first!

She's gone Atlanta. And just because the divorce isnt final yet, doesnt mean there's a chance shes coming back. The sooner you accept that, the sooner you can heal and look for someone who truly loves you. She was banging a whole team of guys from Chicago for years while you were too depressed to notice. Let her go.

Relax Sven, youre getting Berggren, Johansen, and Edvinsson next year. We dont want to hear your pathetic greedy hand-rubbing over every Swedish UFA.

Reads like a farewell tweet to me

No they didnt

Thats a good guy to pay 5 million (sarcasm)

Not sure you understand what gas lighting means... You get rekt everytime we have a convo about Chiarot

Abdelkader is a buyout not a retention.

You havent mentioned it once in this thread, but by all means change the topic to the last 30 games instead of addressing anything I said. But sure, ill agree, why not, Ghost scored a good amount in the last 30. Hes still terrible at defense, and at 31 thats never going to change. Maybe next time he should play "better" in the first 50+ games and maybe then he'll keep his job.

We need another Dman in the mold of Chiarot.

Why are you writing inside my comment? Learn how to post. What's a lot? Okay now I know you're just making stuff up. Chiarot loves to roam. Which is exactly why he and Seider didn't work together. Perhaps you should.... watch the games. I don't love Chiarot, but your bashing him is way over the top. His best year in the winged wheel was this season. And with the load he's been given to carry, he's definately earned that contract. No one else on this team is even close to capable of handling the hard minutes he plays. Don't like? Post about Yzerman and Lalonde. They wanted him, and they're big time using him. Not sure what your point is. You asserted that Newsy only plays Chiarot/players because of their contract, and Holl/Petry/Walman/Maata all prove that's false. If any of that is true, I'm curious why he's only -4 then, while Ghost is -16. What's your take there?

I don't suggest keeping Ghost

Then you have a problem with the coach, not Chiarot Whats the margin? Same reason Mo is #2 in the league in blocked shots this year? And Chiarot suffers with Seider, they have zero chemistry together Wrong. There's 132 PK Dmen in this league. Of the bottom 66 of those in terms of short handed ice time (2nd unit PK Dmen), Chiarot is 13th in fewest short handed goals against per 60min of play. Meaning he is in the top 20% of 2nd unit PK Dmen in not allowing PP goals. Only reason we didn't make the playoffs is cause Chiarot plays a ton? Hmmmm i guess you have a problem with the coach then Again, then you have a problem coaches player usage, not Chiarot Absolutely not true. Yzerman spent 3.2 million on a 3 year contract for Holl, and Newsy gave him the fewest minutes on the team and benched him half the season. Yzerman spent 5 million on Ghost and Newsy gave him the even strength minutes of a bottom pair Dman. Walman and Petry make far less money and play way more than their counterparts. Lalonde does not at all deploy his Dman based on contract. The numbers show your personal eyeball test is garbage.

Only if there is someone there that Yzerman REALLY prefers to what's available at 15. It won't be to get the extra pick. We still need to collect future stars.

Your memes are becoming more... powerful

Chiarot plays more minutes than every D man not named Seider. Takes more Dzone starts than every defender on the team, including Seider. Is #2, behind Seider, in both hits and blocked shots. Has a better +/- than Seider, despite scoring far less. And he runs the 2nd PK unit, with Petry and Ed swapping as his partner. He's easily the #2 Dman on this team, and he has two more seasons under contract. He's not going anywhere with that usage by his coach. If Ghost was actually a better defender than Chia he'd be getting those minutes. But Newsy only uses Ghost 15 min a night at even strength, which equates to the deployment of a #6 Dman. Ghost put up sexy numbers, but over half his points come from the PP, because that's the only time Newsy is comfortable deploying him. When there's no risk of him getting scored on. And when Newsy does play him at even strength, he only gets deployed in the offensive zone or neutral zone. And, despite all that sheltering, he has the worst +/- on the team, at -16. In theory a guy like this should be Uber positive on the +/-. It's impossible to justify paying 5 million a year to a 3rd pair PP specialist that doesn't hit, doesn't block shots, and is on the ice for more goals against than any other defender on the team. oh yeah, and Yzerman specifically said he wants the team to improve at defending as a group, and stop "trying to score our way out of problems". And that to you means burning our top defensive Dman not named Seider, who has 2 years left on his contract, in order to resign a PP specialist who literally isn't trusted to defend at all?
