  1. Well maybe not attack as such, but a comment about the poster, not what was posted.
  2. If only I had ANY picture quality! Sheez.
  3. Depends. What kind of beer?
  4. What's that now?
  5. When all else fails, resort to ad hominem attacks, eh?
  6. I just see Rousek's game as more in line with a 4th line role. He may end up higher than that but he seems to play sound defense.
  7. I posted something to Reddit for the first time in a very long time. How long you ask? My username there is Neuvirths_Glove
  8. So how many Moscow Mules will we end up with?
  9. The C really doesn't drive winning or losing. Personally I wouldn't mind Okposo "presenting" the C to another player at the end of training camp. I think he'd still be a leader on the team whether he has an A or a C or no letter at all. But once the season starts, barring a season-ending injury, he should keep the C.
  10. Rousek on the other hand....
  11. He didn't say that. He said you have trouble composing a post and I don't see the lie. But then again this is a message forum, not the New York Times.
  12. I can't wait to see Mitts in the playoffs. I think he will thrive in those conditions.
  13. He would, but he has hands of stone. He misses 100% of shots he doesn't get on net. 😛
  14. This sentence has never been applicable to Kevyn Adams.
  15. That's an odd take, especially regarding the Eastern Conference. How could you say that the Panthers sweep of the Canes, a team that finished 21 ahead of Florida, is due to seeding?
  16. https://www.diebytheblade.com/kyle-okposo-explains-injury-says-thank-you-in-letter-to-fans/ In fact, it is likely that his leadership style was formed and influenced in the aftermath of his concussion. That's the point about "veteran leadership"... It's not just about how well you play hockey. It's about the experience a veteran player has- all the situations he's been in, all the things he's seen, and how that shapes his approach to the game and to the locker room. Dahlin, Tuch, Cozens, are all leaders in their own way, but they don't have the level of experience that Okposo has. I think it's fair to say that this season will be as much about him shaping Dahlin, Tuch, Cozens and whoever else as it will be about leading the team.
  17. And I think the cancer description is off; it's more that the locker room was fractured into several different factions and all players weren't pulling in the same direction. The players brought in to provide veteran leadership (Gionta, Gorges, etc.) were ignored by the tank fruit in lieu of the bad influences (Kane, Bogo).
  18. He was trying to recover from concussions as the post-concussion meds that almost killed him.
  19. Social media following is a crap metric.
  20. ...and a team Tkachuk is very familiar with.
  21. I think your conclusion is based on a false dichotomy.
  22. Amazing game. Wow.
  23. Come over to the quiet side.
