And u have to admit that signing Erne, Nemeth and Filppula and starting our last 5 1st rounders in GR is right out of the Holland playbook. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean yeah, they're both GMs who worked with the same team with similar staffs. Maybe eventually Yzerman strays more and makes the staff/team more his own. But it's not that surprising that they've been similar GMs so far, given that Yzerman just got here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MileHighWingsGuy 178 Report post Posted October 23, 2019 Have to wait for some of the bad contracts to expire before we see Yzerman start to mold the team on his image. Bye E 1 amato reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,524 Report post Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) Billy Idol reminds me a lot of Nirvana. The music is accessible, on brand, and generally pretty decently made. But that shouldn't distract anyone from the fact that the musician is someone pretending to be something they aren't. In Billy's case we're obviously talking about a punk, and in Nirvana's case a "grunge" rocker. Both scenesters (i.e. people playing dress up). But again, the music if fine...I guess. My thoughts on Nirvana are well documented. Edited October 23, 2019 by kipwinger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
