I replied about Jets and Watson, was asked about ruff (as you know ex-sabres coach) and someone the other day said Hughes looks good and about blackwood being a good goalie after talks about the devil's picking Hutton or trading for him after Crawford retired

At least hockey and sports related

The devils page here is not exactly very active

And it's not just today or yesterday but it seems that politics and all are brought up way too often between several posters and turns into a pissing match. Where neither side can admit that "their guy has done good and bad" and that the other guy only does bad things.

People say they want unity but they only want it for their party and destroy the other party instead of working together and actually help run the country.

It's not just directed at you

I am 100% the one that started the politics talk today
However, that’s rarely me starting it when i do chime in
MANY on here bring it up a lot
That’s just the way it is dude
Idk what to tell ya

Now that president dipsh!t is outta office,
you’ll very rarely see me talk politics

But this was bound to be a big day for it whether i said anything or not

I'm becoming concerned, that he might not even be a good nhl defenseman, let alone the best ever.

Didn't like his game last year, but he had so many points under a 19 BS.

I was expecting a little bit of a 2 way guy. I've seen 0 on both ends so far. Lacks confidence.

I am sure he will get better but the talk of him being the next lidstrom or best dman may have put too much pressure on him and at too young an age that he will be good but just not that high end good. Will still be a beast in a few years but not all time level

Also hard to compare him to someone like Quinn Hughes who may be better offensively but styles are different

It’s Biden’s first day, let’s check to see all you’ve posted about today.....

Took Hedman a few years too
Everyone doesn’t develop at the same rate
Dahlin will be a really good player
We’ve already seen plenty of signs of this,
even if he isn’t a “goal scorer”
- jdfitz77

We have seen it with housley as a coach and he is worse way worse under ralph smh

If we had dependable goaltending,
i don’t think Dahlin would be held back so much by the coaches

We really freaking need to get Kuemper

We had terrible goaltending under housley too and the guy kept getting better and better. Then comes krueger and he looks lost most of the time i dont know..

This is a reasonable post.

What's the feel on hughes? He looks great, can he keep that up?
- Boss34

We were disappointed in his rookie season as we expected a little more as he looked lost out there at times.

He gained 14lbs of muscle and it has shown. He still has his speed and hands, but now he seems more confident and understands the game better.

I don't expect him to stay at a 2pts a game pace but through 3 games it's a big difference to how he played last season and he has been getting better so I expect him to continue improving. And he has 6 points and palms who is more if a scorer hasn't really been that noticable and hasn't scored.

We are playing a much more defensive system now
It’s clearly new to Dahlin to be asked to ply this way, which is why he’s struggling imo

A good goalie allows us to open things up more

Name calling is cute

If you reply to him in 10 minutes you’ll be President Trump. But the Fitz gatekeeper doesn’t talk politics.

Some is system some is the individual goalie

Hynes when he was in NJ didn't really have a system and there were so many defensive break downs or lost coverage or something going wrong but blackwood still was respectable and had a winning record last season due to his abilities.

Schneider was never the same after his injuries so won't count that.

But at the same time you have average goalies that put up great numbers and look better than they are due to the system.

But at the same time many instances it's also the states responsibility and not federal but the president, no matter who, would get the blame.

Has trump handled the virus well? No but at the beginning there is a delicate balance of creating fear and chaos vs having all the information and all. Doesn't help when you have governors saying keep going to Broadway etc


I am not a fan of trump and some of his policies but at the same time realize that if you only point fingers and call names and worry about petty things rather than working for a solution than neither side is being productive or having the people's interest in mind. They may say they care about you but it's pandering when all they cared about was getting trump out and not looking for solutions

There are always going to be people who refuse to wear masks, anti-vax and all that nonsense and unfortunately it was made political and the idiots always get the microphone

Trump isn't good
But is Biden isn't great either

I don't think Krueger nor Smith are helping him. They have taken away his confidence and he seems to be thinking too much rather than just playing.

sounds like you know exactly what you want to tell him.
for someone who is so socially woke I'm surprised you would constantly make homophobic references. hypocrisy is the way of the democratic party after all.

Maybe do something drastic, sit him for a couple of games and have him watch other top dmen and maybe try to work the team towards his strengths instead of throwing him out and hoping his natural talent takes over

Sometimes a quick kick in the shin could be what it takes

You should make a Trump drink for your restaurants. You’re a developer just like Trump now, congrats.

I believe it is the opposite. They are in his head too much, over coaching him.
Early last season he was absolutely horrible as they were trying to improve his D game. He looked like he didn't know if he should sh!t or take a swim. Then, they loosened the reins on him and he looked better.
It seems to be starting all over again.

- dmarsden2988

The solution was to vote his ass out,
which the country did
Now he’s FINALLY gone
And even though I’m not a huge Biden fan either,
he’s immensely more qualified than trump & will actually get some stuff done
He won’t waste an immense amount of time trying to build a wall & make Mexico pay for it-
just for example

PS
Don’t look now, but you’re talking about politics yourself sir! 😂

Let him do what he does best, which is carry the puck

You can tell he has been hesitant to do so

Not to pressure you Mike but if I have to read one more Garth blog title, I may jump off of a bridge

Yawn, like usual
Pathetic

And I didn’t get on and biatch last night because I don’t think we played that bad. Just obviously coulda used a couple of those posts and Chester’s to go in, but we hung for 2.5 periods with a better team than us and with Hutton in net
