I'd be surprised if Risto was the one not listening

Botterill already said the same thing, the players don't listen

Helluva quote right there. Goes right in line with what Botterill has been saying

Bold bracket, Flagg. Did you make it based off of anything?

Sorry, can't see this at all. Every team leader on every team takes the onus and points to the things they can do better. What's the alternative? Calling out your teammates?

Agreed. Not talking about team issues to the media is being on a team 101.

It's probably like knowing you're depressed. Just knowing it doesn't mean you can suddenly get past it

To nobodies surprise, Patrick Sharp has retired

Jack used to be like that but you can tell the fun is being taken out of the game for him. I'm not sure who else we could get that's just a fun, positive, upbeat guy in there (from around the league that is). Thornton seems like that guy to me

Bingo bango bongo. Guys like this are huge to a team; Kevin Millar for the red Sox via 04', Didi Gregorious right now for the Yankees, etc. Sorry, only baseball guys come to mind

I think there's two different mentalities. You can put the past loss behind you and be indifferent about the loss, or you can be mad about it and determined not to let it happen again. This, to me, just sounds like indifference

Same Also, get rid of Okposo.

In Nashville > Boston

You're a loser, Kyle Good

Allen needs to go. He failed at his job in every conceivable way possible

Congrats man! When will you find out? Bring the nurses and I'm down :beer:

Are we done with the Russian fear by the way? Or is the lazy, will-jump-ship, Russian stereotype still around?

To be fair that link pretty much hits it on the head for jvm GC :lol: Damn, sounds nice. Pretty jealous you have the freedom to do that lol. We're consistently being told to just tweak this and that to make it work. I can't even tell you how many use cases are hardcoded in our app, it's terrifying What we should do is just what you are. But management is too afraid to commit to such an effort it seems. Oh well :beer:

System.gc(); Coincidentally currently working through this. Cannot get the heap memory to handle a script I'm running for the life of me

Excellent thread Flagg, well done. That gives me hope that Housely isn't as incompetent as I thought

Saw A Quite Place tonight. Very tense movie, very unique and well shot. Good/great ending. Definitely worth seeing

Am I the only one that sees Malkin when scouting Svechnikov? He just seems to process the game much better than Zadina. Out of those two, I'm taking Svechnikov. Wahlstrome seems more like a finisher than a creator. Could be a great complement to Mittelstadt. Am I right in what I'm seeing with this? God dammit, I'm not going to make it to the lottery. 20 more days of this is going to kill me

I really, really doubt Arizona moves OEL. They've been on the record as staunchly against it for a long time now
