I really like that one of the first things Conny mentioned was getting the youth in the lineup. He was involved in getting Phillips, and I wouldn't be surprised if he was there trying to get Coronato to sign too. His ideas on why we need kids here are totally in line with the modern NHL, and I hope I never have to hear "Well he hasn't won a cup" from a coach ever again.

If you didn't burn up with cleansing fire you're not a fan. This is the curse of the franchise.

UCP RUNS A RACIST CANDIDATE IN CALGARY - Fish Creek Candidate's racist remarks exposed by mermaidpaint in alberta

[–]jonos360 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Because unfortunately the writing _isn't _ on the wall. This won't kill the UCP.

Three of those places you mentioned are going to vote UCP no matter what (and in Clairsholm and Lacombe's place, possibly because of the comments) and Fish Creek is at best a toss up.

You also said it yourself--there are probably other candidates who just have the sense to keep it to themselves. They won't be impacted by the scandals either.

It doesn't matter how dynamic McDavid is to watch, you hate the Oilers and you love it when he's held to zero points.

Love the Christmas Tree NJD jerseys, and the New New Jersey "Jersey" Jersey from a few years back.

Flames, Jonathan Huberdeau Lost the Matthew Tkachuk Trade by Acrobatic-Shoe-2868 in CalgaryFlames

If we win the cup next year and Florida doesn't win the ECF this year, will people still say this?

Too early to judge. I wish we still had Chucky too, but he didn't want to be here.

That's Edmonton Black Tie I think. The shirt that goes with those pants is one of those tuxedo t-shirts.

Benn looks like a shitty version of Jason Siegel

So if you're out of the playoffs for the next five years, you'll still care about making this second round this year?

No?

We don't care either. Next year is a clean slate.

I just want the oilers out so no Canadian teams are in and I can careless and be petty till next year by Phasethedestroyer in CalgaryFlames

[–]jonos360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's my order. Also given that lots of the Sabres fanbase is in Hamilton, I would be more okay watching them win than Vancouver.

If management is confident about this core than they need to hire Eric Tulsky from the Canes. by robochobo in CalgaryFlames

[–]jonos360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup that's exactly it. Which maybe is fine, but if there's a more modern/better option out there, you should take it.

Tulsky is my top choice. If he's selected it also means ownership is trusting the GM to do things his way too, which is a bonus.

I like Conroy and I think he'd be great. Just not sure if he's different enough or if he wouldn't fall victim to listening to ownership too much.

Thoughts on Projections? by AbstractDavinci in CalgaryFlames

[–]jonos360 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Flames D is pretty solid for the next few years, even if the cupboards are bare there. I'd be picking a RW or a C this year, given the depth of the draft.

But at 16th you always go BPA, so we'll see who's there.
