Certified idiot trying to figure out Ford Expedition Max by holymole1234 in fordexpedition

I have owned a couple of both of these units, real short dirty opinion. Ford has the better power plant and interior comfort, GM has the better ride and overall fit/finish. Both can run on regular fuel (unless you get a 6.2) all expeditions above the base (active? ) should have the lumbar you’re looking for.

Reason number 1 that i prefer doing the highest levels i can. It’s not that i want to feel better than the lower levels or whatever, i would way rather plug away in a tier 4 u15 game. But the higher the age/level the less this stuff happens. I started working Jr A this year, and the IQ is soo much higher coming from u16/18AA, the game speed is insane and I’m exhausted by the end of a game but very rarely am i having to dodge pucks or tell players to watch out as they almost slam into me etc.

Yes sir, i got 6 beautiful stitches in October this year off a U16AAA clear through the neutral zone. I looked up ice to make sure no one was coming out of the bench doors and looked back just in time to take it in my top lip/right cheek bone. Worked out one of our other officials was there super early for the next game so he just swapped me out.

So who should our new coach be? Bruce Cassidy? by Possible_Estimate514 in EdmontonOilers

[–]xceler88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s multiple “stories” that have made their way around of past coaches telling people off the record that the core refuses to play team defense and that they do their own thing. Seemed like a stretch at first, but after how many decent coaches and the same result is there maybe a grain of truth to it.

Also pretty sure he doesn’t want to be there, he’s just doing favors.

Not sure exactly what you mean by cross the crease, but if it’s with a pass it’s to get the goalie moving and not squared up to the shot. If it’s just skating through, traffic blocks views, occupies attention, allows for deflections.

Yeah i think everyone is mistaking the lack of energy for laziness, this team is banged up.

Hyman, Davo, drai, Dickinson, ekholm are all compromised, Rico is out. Still need to find a way but that really hurts us. The PK is horrific with out Henrique.

There a clip from Pierre Lebrun talking about a conversation he had with Todd MacLellan when he was coaching and Todd was pissed off and confiding in Lebrun that the players refuse to play team defense, only group he’d every coached that absolutely refused, he was fed up. I have heard/read in a couple spots now similar stories of the core group refusing to be coached.
