That has to be the worst analogy ever.. lol but whatever
You mean to tell me that Garth has been good all this time? Garth Snow has a terrible drafting record and his cronies running the show are just YES MEN. Which is why I go back to my original argument. Do tell me how keeping draft picks in the minors over journeyman help player development? Tell me how a top 5 draft pick (whom isnt that good but was the best player available) is actually learning under Thompson but yet lets play Alan Quine and Shane Prince? Lets have Tanner Fritz play over Josh Ho-Sang. Lets have Brian Strait play endlessly over Ryan Pulock. Lets have Marty Reasoner play on the Powerplay. Are you serious???
Ill take Ho-Sang and 3 goals over Alan Quine!!
Nashville has always played amazing regular season hockey in the last decade but they run into the brick walls that were Chicago and LA. They broke out last year and I say they have a chance to get the cup and if they dont I wont say thats a failure. In the last decade the NYR have had 2 ECF appearances and 1 SC appearance and I call that a success. Meanwhile in Islanders country a 2nd round appearance is considered great achievement.
You are right about HF its fun but what makes it horrible are pretentious people pretending that they know everything. Going back to my original argument.. Brent Thompson is awful. He hasnt developed jack **** and this whole "system" has been an abysmal failure. We can agree to disagree and unfortunately You have a right to be wrong.. Good Day!
i think Thompson has no choice but to follow Weight's and Cappy's systems. he doesn't get to choose. he gets to make in-game changes, but if Snow tells him to treat a player a certain way, do you think Thompson is going to refuse?
i don't watch enough to know if Thompson is good or bad, but i am certainly smart enough to not make assumptions. people that do, usually wind up looking silly.
and a great day to you too!
let's go Isles!
p.s. feel free to cheer the boys on every once in a while. it might make you feel better
