You didn't have to give him a pat on the back, Commandant, but you didn't have to jump down his throat either. I form a lot of my opinions from sportscasters, hockey magazines etc... and although I acknowledge that doesn't make me an expert, I can still state my case. I just don't want another thread to dissolve into personal attacks, so how about we all play nice, ok?

I agree to a certain extent; there have been plenty of positives, but Mete's performance has been the most surprising to me, while the others have merely met my expectations, I suppose. And I haven't written off the season yet! Just commenting up to this point (crystal ball is still broken).

I'm not sure how Mete's development is being ruined when he's improving game after game? I'm not saying things are perfect, but that's basically the one thing they're not buggering up this year.

Excellent first post! Welcome to HW!

Ah, can't count on my memory or observational skills for much these days...

I'm pretty sure that DLR broke his stick and Chucky passed him his FWIW

I imagine I'll be slumped over a beer or 12...

Lip service, but I actually agree.

I've taken to calling him Morrowble. Nowhere near NHL calibre.

Someone didn't get the memo that Chucky isn't a center anymore...

Well, I bought tickets for an individual game, and they still charge you $5 for your mobile ticket (vs $15 for a paper ticket). This is after a $24 service charge for waiting in a virtual waiting room for 2 hours.

Almonds are healthy, amirite?

I seem to be saying this a lot, but can we leave personal attacks out of these discussions? I know it's a long summer, but c'mon guys...

Guys, I know we can debate this without personal attacks/crude references.

Sad to see him gone, and I hope that his contract demands were unreasonable, because there's no other reason not to bring him back for a year (pending potential moves). Farewell, General.

Great depth signing, but definitely no Markov replacement. I don't mind him getting some 3rd pair and 2nd PP time. Is it safe to say that MB is done signing D, barring any trades for a C? I can't say I'm stoked about the backend!

To be fair, Methot wanted nothing to do with Montreal.

Why thanks! Honestly, I carry a grudge from 2009 when I had drafted him pretty high in all of my fantasy leagues... and he played all of 22 games. Can't shake the feeling that he's a bandaid boy, but sit corrected to see the decent GP the last 3 years.

I'm pretty sure Hemsky will be slotted in the LTIR...

Don't forget we had to throw in Flynn to sweeten the pot!

He's definitely not a top-6 fwd anymore, but my Dallas friend says his two-way play is really underrated. Y'know, when he's not on the IR healing his papier maché bones.

One year, one way, $1M.

Isn't that good news if EK is reporting it?

Hahaha and now we're down to one sentence!

Thanks! I like that your assumption is that two sentences is too long for me to read!
