Honestly he seems gifted at pretty much anything he does, regardless of what industry it is or what job he is doing. -

Love, love, love this hire!!! Sabres will be legit cup contenders within 3 years under Krueger...this guy is special...he is a winner and has basically exceeded expectations in everything he has done... Those in the know consider him a brilliant hockey mind as well, very innovative and has the ability to get he most from any group he works with... Thomas Vanek said Kruger would be a "huge, huge get for Buffalo if they can get him" and said Kruger is one of the best coaches he has ever had... -

Sean McVay thinks otherwise. You sound like the guy who has been at a place for 30 years and still is an assistant and is mad because the "new guy" who is 25 years younger and has only been there 2 years but has new ideas and new methods of doing things that actually work gets the job instead. -

The more ability you have, the less experience matters. Experience teaches you how to do something "right" or how to handle situations that arise. People with high levels of ability already mostly know how to handle these things because they have exceptional instincts at doing it. Yes they make mistakes, but their mistakes are usually less frequent and less severe than other people with the saem experience they have. They also rarely make the same mistake twice and learn very quickly. -

I'm not sure it was "inferior" by that much...he had some very good players on it... Zdeno Chara, Marian Hossa, Marian Gaborik, Thomas Vanek, Leon Draisatl, Anze Kopitar, Mark Streit, Roman Jossi, etc... The most challenging part was he was taking guys who never played or really practiced together as a team and had to have them ready against teams that had been practicing and playing together for much longer periods of time. -

Experience always has been and always will be overrated. Ability is what matters. People with ability will always be quick learners. -

Let's put it in perspective...it was Edmonton's best finish in 11 years and everyone was surprised when he got fired. Then he took a bunch of guys who never played together from 8 different countries and shocked everyone by making it to the finals. -

NHL players basically praising him effusively and saying how brilliant he is when it comes to hockey...yeah I'm good with him. I think the Sabres could win a Cup within 3 or 4 years with him here...this would be an absolute awesome hire. -

He is a hockey guy first and foremost, he just happens to be really successful at lots of other things as well. -

He was so well respected in hockey that the day he was fired in Edmonton, he was asked to be a consultant for Team Canada and their Olympic Hockey Team. He oversaw Southampton's return to the Premier League and their best ever finishes in the league. He coached Team Europe, a collection of players from "other countries" to 2nd place in 2016 in the World Championships, losing to Team Canada in the Finals. He was named to the World Economic Forum New Models of Leadership Council. Here is an article talking about how he brings success pretty everywhere he goes...prior to his foray at the World Championships in 2016 and management in Southampton,which happened to be the most successful finishes the team has ever had in The Premier League(6th, 7th, and 8th twice, before 17th this year). http://www.themanitoban.com/2014/03/international-man-of-sports/19821/ People like him "just figure it out" in regards to how to be successful because it is what drives them. -

Kruger seems like one of those people who you could literally give him a job doing anything and he would figure out a way to be very successful at it, even if he has never done it before. Those type of people exist and it shouldn't be discounted. Some people just understand how to succeed in general in any situation and understand how to achieve a desired result. -

OT: The Spoilerrific Avengers: Endgame Thread
matter2003 replied to TrueBlueGED's topic in The Aud Club
I thought it was just OK. I liked Infinity Wars much better. I felt the first 45 minutes really dragged and could have been condensed into15 minutes. Nothing really stood out to me in this one...honestly my favorite part might have been Quill singing and dancing like an idiot. -
They dont need it...all they need is to use grammarly, a free plugin...

These women's leagues dont get that the reason they dont make more money or have "real leagues" is to be perfectly honest, nobody cares about women's sports. If they did, they would be drawing big crowds. They don't in high school, they don't in college, and they don't in the pros. If I want to go watch sports I want to see the fastest, quickest, most athletic people on the planet doing things you didn't think were possible. Whether they like it or not, these athletes are men. If I watch basketball i want to see people dunking and swatting not watching perfect layups. Same with hockey, baseball, football, etc... Perhaps women's soccer is the closest thing to actually watching good sports. This is not sexist in any way, it just merely points out there are significant speed, strength and agility differences between men and women that no matter how much women don't want them to exist, they do. If people want to watch sports its to watch the most athletic people in that sport and those are men.

Except the difference between us and them is that nobody outside that arena cares. EDIT: Not exactly true...NJ had the 6th lowest attendance in the NHL this year.
