  1. To me this makes no sense if he's a confident young man in his abilities as he'd want to play on a top tier team. Also, if you believe what he said, he said it had nothing to do with the coach.
  2. Taken from The Score Josh Wegman: Cutter Gauthier didn't divulge the exact reason for his trade request from the Philadelphia Flyers, but he did shed some light on his decision. "It wasn't one specific reason why I asked for a trade," Gauthier told reporters on a Zoom call Wednesday, including The Sporting Tribune's Derek Lee. "It was multiple, re-occurring issues that I'd seen over the past year and a half, two years of being under the Flyers organization. It kind of hit me all at once, thinking 'I can't move forward with this' and 'I really need to step up for myself and see what's best for my future' and that's what I did." He added: "I haven't seen one thing that's been remotely close to the reasons that I decided." Cryptic at its best.
  3. Man, spoken like a Knight fan. Gross.
  4. Reading the The Golden Knights are struggling right now. Awwwwwwwwwww. Man there's a team I would love to see drop real quick right out of a playoff spot.
  5. Great question. Reasonable to ask so decisions are evidence-informed not a small group of people cooking something up.
  6. Absolutely, but in some cases like this one in particular, its not the what he's doing, its the how he's doing it. But at EOD to each their own.
  7. I always love it when the family of the player gets involved. Get yer popcorn here.
  8. Ahhhhhhhh I guess we will see. I hope you’re correct.
  9. Yes but not at his quality. I think we will find that out next year if we don't re-sign him imo.
  10. Probably the Oilers, they seem to enjoy make work projects (see Evander Kane). Sorry I haven't given a shot to the Oilers lately. Taking a break from the Leafs.
  11. Even before this latest situation, hard pass.
  12. There's humble yet confident and there's obnoxious over the top please stop talking (or writing). I wish BO would demonstrate the first part of this sentence to secure the best situation for himself. But to each their own.
  13. If we lose Brady, I will greatly miss how he dictated the tone to opponents, how he established the run to open up play action the pass game, how he was a multi threat and, as importantly, his sidelines off field contributions. I don't think he's a dime a dozen.
  14. To me a great indicator to help decide who won the trade is would you reverse the trade and get back Dubois? Methinks the answer is pretty clear. Hell no.
  15. And/or 'The starting role is his to lose' could mean he will lose it if he doesn't shine/out-perform others by a mile in TC.
  16. HardCoreBlue replied to Rich's post in a topic in General Discussion
    I don't know where to put this so I'll put it here. Just read that Roger Stone denied an audio of him saying nefarious things by claiming it was chatgpt. It's getting so easy to distort, distract and move on with little consequence. We're doomed. My motivational speech for the day.
  17. Taken from the Winnipeg Sun: 'Vilardi has eight goals, Iafallo seven — again, more than the $9-million man they were acquired for. Combined, they earn less than Dubois'. Dubois who? Laine who?
  18. For some they're 'blind' to the CFL cuz they have no interest in relocating to the north and/or they're not good enough to play in this league.
  19. Hockey Night in Hockey: let’s talk Leafs. oh the Winnipeg Jets are first in the league. Good for them. let’s get back to the Leafs. yes I’m exaggerating but jeez it’s hard to watch sometimes.
  20. Tre Ford needs to make sure he has his noise cancelling earbuds in when MBT is 'grooming'.
  21. Another reminder that sport is a very distant second to what really matters in life. Jeez.
  22. Two uncomfortable 'look at me' weirdos coming together in Jones and MBT.
  23. Your whole post is fantastic . . . in theory. As a moderator, I understand the challenge of that role (professionally and personally), i.e., providing safe trusting environments where all (introverts, extroverts, ambiverts) feel comfortable sharing their diverse thoughts, views, ideas, perspectives whether fully formed or not with the common objective of contributing for the better. Especially with the current environment we live in, it's a wicked problem to solve and get better at in an adequate way. Unfortunately in practice a small minority of humans who consistently spout drivel, play the victim card because they're called on it and yell that they're not being heard ruin it for the diverse population who actually and legitimately aren't being heard and aren't being provided a comfortable safe environment to practice what you articulate above. This is what we have to debate more and figure out together. But not here in this thread.
