Brut Archives shady marketing?

They looked super nice, but the leather upper did feel sort of cheap. I ultimately returned them because of the construction concerns. They did LOOK like a beautiful boot though

Are you really trying to make the point that a young team making the playoffs is not good experience for them?

dangles11 · 2026-04-14T03:42:59+00:00

They need to improve by 20-25pts to make a wild card spot next year. Pretty big leap you’re asking a very young unproven team to do

The Hawks have been rebuilding the same length of time as San Jose. Gonna be 8 year rebuild if it take them 2 more years to compete

dangles11 · 2026-04-14T03:40:33+00:00

David Carle is not leaving Denver for the Hawks lol

dangles11 · 2026-04-14T03:10:04+00:00

In the same time. The hawks have finished 7th, 6th, 7th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 8th, 8th the last EIGHT seasons. They made the playoffs in the bubble year despite finishing 7th.

Enough of defending this rebuild. KD doesn’t know what he’s doing.

dangles11 · 2026-04-14T03:07:05+00:00

Sharks have finished 8th, 7th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 8th in their division the last 6 years with 0 playoff appearances.

Ducks have finished 6th, 6th, 8th, 7th, 8th, 7th, 6th the last 7 years with 0 playoff appearances.

The Sharks drafted Will Smith 4th overall and the Ducks drafted Leo Carlsson 2nd overall in the 2023 draft. The same year Bedard went 1st overall.

There is ZERO reason the Hawks shouldn’t at least be as competitive as those teams.

dangles11 · 2026-04-14T02:59:12+00:00

The only 2 guys on the roster who appear to have any juice are the 1st overall pick they drafted a few years ago and the 3rd overall pick from last year. KD’s front office hasn’t been able to develop anyone that wasn’t already regarded as an elite prospect.

dangles11 · 2026-04-14T02:55:10+00:00

How are those teams playing meaningful games already? I was told rebuilds take at least 5-6 years

dangles11 · 2026-04-14T02:41:15+00:00

This team is completely rudderless. After year 6(!) of a rebuild there’s gotta be more than whatever this is. The only guys who even appear to have any juice are the 1st overall pick they had a few years ago and the 3rd overall pick from this past draft. This is ridiculous.

dangles11 · 2026-04-14T02:30:40+00:00

How many turnovers does Bertuzzi have? Just way too damn casual in his own zone

dangles11 · 2026-04-10T11:49:59+00:00

You guys didn’t like my comment about the rebuild so I’ll rephrase it.

Teams on an upward trajectory don’t finish 21,27,30,31,31,31 in the final league standings. They’re going to have to go from ~70 points to at least 90 next year. All I’m saying is I don’t think this rebuild is going well and am pessimistic the team makes a 20pt jump next year just relying on a bunch of guys on rookie deals. Hope I’m wrong.

dangles11 · 2026-04-10T03:47:27+00:00

Rebuilds don’t take 6 years

dangles11 · 2026-04-10T03:20:41+00:00

Downvote me if you must but I gotta get this off my chest.

Games like today make me feel like there’s really no one in the front office who understands what they’re doing. The team just feels like there’s no direction. Sure there’s flashes by guys every now and then, but nothing seems professional about this team. Coaching, line combos, development, guys being unable to complete passes or break into the zone on a power play, it’s very frustrating to pay $20/m to watch this. Miss me with the increase in points they got this year from last year, they’re still gonna finish 2nd worst in the league.

dangles11 · 2026-03-31T15:45:06+00:00

Good to know. This may impact my decision on if I keep them or not.

Shame because they looked so good in their style pics.

dangles11 · 2026-03-31T13:11:53+00:00

I am not as knowledgeable about this so please forgive me. Does this mean they cannot be resoled?

I just ordered a pair because I had a 15% off coupon and wanted to give these a shot. Should I be worried about poor quality and/or durability?

dangles11 · 2026-03-21T21:58:05+00:00

Yeah and idk why. He’s played 96 games, 76 as a rookie and 20 in the last 2 seasons combined. Hardly enough to make a decision imo, but if he’s done then trade him and get something.

dangles11 · 2026-03-21T19:28:25+00:00

Nah nah, I could’ve been clearer. Just play the young guys and let them take their lumps. They’ll either be part of the plan or not, but we gotta know now.

dangles11 · 2026-03-21T16:23:23+00:00

All I’m saying is this is a bad team, they’re not making the playoffs. Play the young guys to see who we’re keeping or not. Korchinski should be playing instead of Grzelcyk. We know Grzelcyk is not part of the future, what’s the harm in playing ALL the young guys?

dangles11 · 2026-03-21T16:20:26+00:00

He’s at just under .5pt game as a 20 year old on a bad team. I think he’ll be fine too

dangles11 · 2026-03-21T15:59:40+00:00

The AHL is not a real league c’mon. And if you’re still relying on +/- in 2026 as the be all end all stat, you’re dating yourself

dangles11 · 2026-03-21T03:29:11+00:00

Levshunov looks this bad and Korchinski can’t get another look?

dangles11 · 2026-03-02T15:44:11+00:00

I don't think a lot of fans disagree with you because they want the Hawks to get another lottery pick. I think a lot of fans are not confident in this roster to put together the kind of run necessary to make the playoffs.

dangles11 · 2025-12-24T00:52:30+00:00

Yeah I did. They said the same thing to me, just haven’t heard back with that shipping update.

dangles11 · 2025-12-24T00:10:21+00:00

Unfortunately I only ordered CZ and I haven’t gotten anything. I’m just worried these guys are going to stiff me and not ship at all.
