Maybe a bit from column A and some of column B? You may already be aware of it that Barry Trotz has a special needs son. So there are family considerations when he considers relocating for jobs. https://eyesonisles.com/2020/04/09/islanders-barry-trotz-bond-son/ 1

Barry Trotz is a terrific coach. He is a better human being. He has been actively involved and a strong advocate in that community to make lives better for the families and make them feel a part of the community at large. 2

What many people take exception to are expenditures like disgraced former Governor Cuomo's spending a few $MM of taxpayer funds on hundreds (1,000's?) of blue attraction signs along the Thruway which far exceeded the federal guidelines for such signs & then had to be removed (at taxpayer expense) to keep from having NY's federal transportation allotment from being significantly curtailed.

Conneticut gutted their special needs funfing 20 years ago... so people do complain... had people we know had to move or go bankrupt... CT does better for adults but not for kids 1

I disagree. I see people up in arms over school taxes all the time. I have a person running for governor in PA who thinks the average teacher salary in the state is too high and wants to reduce per pupil spending to Mississippi levels. He plan is to eliminate property taxes that currently go directly to local schools and replaces them with...wait for it...NOTHING. None of that is hyperbole, it's come out of his mouth. This isn't a fringe candidate, this is the person who won the GOP primary. 1
Wyldnwoody44 Posted June 26, 2022 Report Posted June 26, 2022 So what's going on around the NHL, leave the politics out of this. 4

Ducky Posted June 28, 2022 Report Posted June 28, 2022 Trotz was born in Winnipeg and grew up in Dauphin, about 3 1/2 hours away. His son is not the only family concern. Really thought we were going to get him... 1

Can the Loafs afford that kind of a hit to their pipeline for that little of a haul? Surely a conditional 3rd in 2 years would be more appropriate, right? 🤪

This guy is a purported hockey journalist? The author ignores his own reasoning. Who does the author think Chicago is rebuilding *around*? A 33 year old defenseman? This is as stupid as the Chicago writer with the Kane proposal. Maybe even worse. Edited June 28, 2022 by Eleven 1
