Totally agree. To me, that looked pretty much like the definition of the hit the NHL wants out of the game. I love how thornton and doan both said "i didnt even mean to hit him". Yeah, ok.....
On another note, we're agreeing way too often these days, its getting a little weird hahaha

Im sorry, but if you in any way, shape or form expected a player of the quality of Ryan Getzlaf or Claude Giroux for a goaltender, in a goalie market thats colder than the NYSE Circa 2008, I dont even know what to tell you...

And all employed NHL Gm's automatically are genious' and know better? Theres definitely posters on this site who wouldnt have been stupid enough to make the dumb trades that milbury is famous for.
Just because you get paid to do the job, doesnt mean you know how to do it. That is the corporate world.
Im not saying that all the critics here are qualified to be GM's, or even that any of the critics here are qualified to be GM's. Doesnt mean that all NHL GM's are qualified to be in their positions either.
Brian Lawton? Mike Milbury? John Ferguson Jr?
There's a reason GM's get fired.

I dont think so. Hes an opinionated kid who just doesnt know any better and he got taken advantage of by two veteran media personnel who baited him. Obviously paccioretty is to blame for his comments, but Tony Marinaro didnt shy away from asking the tough questions.

I found it refreshing. To hear a 21 year old say to everyone what he needs to do to be successful, I think took a lot of guts. A lot of guys would say the old cliche "ill be the waterboy if thats what it takes to get to the NHL", but maxpac knows that he isnt going to develop into the player he wants to be in the bottom 6, and good on him for saying it!
If our coaching staff doesnt like it, too bad! He will be a successful player somewhere else, and it will be our loss.
Even Lars Eller shouldn't be playing in the NHL if he's not in the top-6.

Having the leagues leading goal scorer since January 2009 is certainly helping Tampa's cause. Stamkos may even be a purer goal scorer than ovechkin. This kid is on fire. If St Louis and Stamkos go cold, Tampa is done for. All of tampa's losses this year are games where stamkos had only 1 point or less. In only two of Tampa's 7 wins this year did Stamkos not have a multi-point game.
The lack of defensive depth and Shaky goaltending will eventually catch up with them.
