  1. get back to work, old man! this regime needs your toil to pad their coffers. get to it!
  2. no, but he's got the monkey smashing keys schtick down
  3. nm
  4. correct and it's likely the second biggest reason DeBoer got the axe behind losing the players (really no coming back from that). and maybe the two were one in the same.
  5. he's getting paid THIS season to do that. He was getting paid the same as Seguin and Benn and slightly more than Roope last season and he outperformed all of them. I'm not saying you're wrong, but it's good to keep things in perspective. now that he's making top 5 player money, he needs to play like a top 5 player. his stats say he is top 15-25 player, so he will certainly need to elevate his game to begin earning those dollars. I think he will do that and more.
  6. this fall, probably, when we're all trying to enjoy football and hockey
  7. welp, was considering a scrip but nah
  8. don't worry, dotard will tell them not to and they won't
  9. everyone disappeared. that series against the oil was one of the most frustrating I have ever seen - i can only imagine what it was like on the bench rantanen will not be expected to carry the team - no player in the modern nhl is capable of that. the oil have proven that. he'll be expected to produce at or better than he did in COL, however, and it remains to be seen if that can happen without Mac and Cale. he's good enough to carry a line, and even with a game by himself (relatively), but he will need skilled players around him to do that. we have them - we just need to make sure the rest are good enough to not get the brakes beat off us every time rantanen's line is off the ice
  10. counterpoint: this is what winning looks like when you're a complete piece of shit
  11. put it in reverse, terry!
  12. oh no, they explode, it's just a lot smaller than you might expect
  13. Faksa re-signed. I like that. Graham promoted to big club assistant. Not a surprising move.
  14. kinky. I guess. same but with Boobert.
  15. that's why the focus needs to be those who didn't vote, not trying to change the minds of those who did. most of those people are beyond saving. focus on those who we can bring around.
  16. I'm sure magats will tone down the rhetoric after these developments. 🙄
  17. fair has nothing to do with it. the expectation is that the Stars will go further than we went last year with better players than the year before (Nill is working on that part). we actually went backwards this season. we only won our division (instead of conference, and almost President's), we had fewer regular season points (106 vs 113) and won one fewer playoff game. so I'd say at least 2023-2024 results or better is the expectation.
  18. good, they needed to fix that. I actually don't have an issue with any of the rule changes coming out of the CBA: the second to last is aimed at Lou Lamoriello
  19. This is where I sit until proven otherwise. Nill is a fucking wizard and he has earned our trust. Guessing they wanted Gulutzan to cook a bit before bringing him back. I don't hate the pick, but he's not gonna get a ton of grace from me or the media. he has to bring the team forward, not backwards one step.
  20. Do you mean literally or figuratively? Both apply, just want to know what you mean
  21. I'm honestly waiting for them to tell us the constitution isn't real and everything is made up and the points don't matter
  22. something something peanut farm
