I wasn't talking **** about anyone. Notice I did not name anyone, or quote anyone.
So get off your high ****ing horse, and keep your dander down. I do not have the time or desire to hunt through folks' posting history to track down their opinion on various matters. I have a general idea of where most regulars stand, but in general, it is not important enough for me to keep up with exactly how each of the dozens of posters here feel about each issue. I know TV loves her some kids and picks. I know GtG follows and scouts goalies. And other general trends. But beyond the rough basics, I do not care enough about who says what to keep track in order to specifically call them out...and I was not trying to call anyone specific out with my post.
I was legitimately asking...because the sentiment that they bring in an established NHL coach is pretty widespread....but so is the hope that they bring in one of these guys with zero NHL GM experience. So I figure there has to be some crossover, and I want those folks to do some self examination. Are they *****ing about Bednar being a rookie, and they advocating for a rookie GM. Is that not hypocrisy? If not, why not? If there are folks that are doing both of those, then they need to ask themselves why...are they doing it just to ***** and vent steam from a poor season? Are they falling into a pattern that nothing is every going to be the right move by this team? Are they just trolling? I am not asking for my own knowledge, but to prompt them to think about it. I already know how I view it, and some of them have been ignored. The fact that you have not been means I do not place you specifically in that group.
As for your last post previous to this exchange. Sakic hiring Bednar proved a couple things. First, that he is not afraid to take a risk on an under-proven suit. The gamble may not have paid off, but he did make that bet, so we cannot say he does not have the balls to try it. It also went against the commonly held belief that the Avs will only hire from within, or legacy type coaches/execs. They have also busted the myth that they will not draft Europeans in the first. Or that they will not go after Russians, or college players, or pretty much any of those fallacies. The last one to fall will be drafting a D with an early first, and if Heiskanen is there at 4, I think it falls this year.
