Great to finally see Wheeler rewarded with an All star game. Well deserved, he always gives 110% and it's finally starting to get him recognized. Well done to Helle too! Such a massive turnaround for him this season.

Can't wait to see the looks of dismay on other central division fans faces as Wheeler's first shift lasts 7 minutes :sarcasm:

How is Wheeler not gonna piss players off during the All Star game , he can't play any game unless he is full out . Guys are gonna be yelling at him to slow down , we only give 20 % effort at All star games and you are making us look bad . :laugh:

Hellebuyck:

"I'm looking forward to my time in Tampa. I do like that area and... *breaths in* I like that organi- ... zation there and I think they're going to treat us well."

i've knocked PoMo before, but this tweet's pretty accurate



Aahh, so thats why Wheeler said what he said about why Maurice is the best coach he's ever had. Now I get it.

I seldom give credit to Maurice but that does not mean I am saying there is none to give. This is stuff I have no clue about.

One can think the efficacy of Paul Maurice's decisions are measurably below average. That doesn't mean he's a "bad" or "worthless" coach. Last I checked, 96.77% of head coaches in the NHL are NOT "the best head coach in the NHL".

your claim is incorrect.
or, i should say, your definition of "best coach" is probably incorrect and silly.
having the best coach is not necessarily the goal. having a good coach for the roster assembled is the goal.
and what's a good coach? depends on the roster.
using Babcock as an example, his first year's goal was not to get wins. it was player development and instilling systems into his young team.
so let's look at PoMo. again, not defending him. would you argue that the Jets are winning in spite of him or because of him?
look at Babcock again. Leafs have been in a funk and are making sloppy mistakes. because of or in spite of him?
