Idk how someone can watch that much hockey and pronounce some of these names the way he does. I enjoy the podcast but it's just super annoying. /rant i'm fairly certain this is Fisher's (it's his site) shtick that we all missed as the podcast has been around for a while. its either a complete mispronunciation like "mic-LOD" instead of "mick-CLOUD' or wrong syllabic emphasis like su-BAHN instead of SU-ban. he doesn't do it with everyone but there's just enough to make it seem like he doesn't actually follow the team that much (which of course he does). i've learned to get past it as they're takes and comments are about 75% right on which is a higher percentage than most.

Unfortunate but that's totally on you haha Many commented on how it would be important to manage expectations this year. We won games but we weren't great in many of them. I'd say the Islanders win was our only real good game. The bruins are struggling without Chara, Krug and Pastrnak, they really didnt play well and took like 10 games before they finally scored a 5 on 5 goal lol We won the rangers but gave up like 50 shots... it's really not thaaaat great of a start.

Guadana 944 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Our last 5 pk goals. I`m too lazy to making more. We have hard trouble with the slot. Someone close the view for our goalie or deflect the puck. And our defensemen are far away for doing something with it. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you had no intention or re-signing him, you would give permission so the guy can find a job elsewhere. That’s about it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SterioDesign 3,424 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 i think i already commented this but i don't feel like double checking lol but here i am potentially repeating... there's no way the owners went through months of interviews to get a GM... to then just let him leave within a year. Unless getting Ruff and keeping Tom is all part of a bigger plan with other candidates in mind that'd only be available in the future or something 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Unless getting Ruff and keeping Tom is all part of a bigger plan with other candidates in mind that'd only be available in the future or something I would have to imagine you’re correct, generally speaking you don’t walk away from the GM you chose for no reason, usually it’s because they have been ineffective (or you think they have). I’m sure it’s happened but I don’t think we usually hear of a team just letting an otherwise effective GM walk. The question becomes, where’s his family, did they move to NJ or are they still in Pittsburgh? If he still had roots there, maybe that job is too good to resist. That’s what I’m afraid of.

SterioDesign 3,424 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Damn i was just checking out our players usage chart and man... Seeing how Palmieri is put in such a favorable spot to succeed and he can't. Also well as great as it is to see Jack and Ty do pretty well, i sure hope they are able to keep the production going once they are put in a tougher spot against tougher competition Quote Link to post Share on other sites
