You completely ignored what I said. Did you see all the talk of him being a potential top 5 pick (done suggesting #1) after his point per game rookie CHL season? Go look, it is there. We know his draft year numbers were low, so yeah, his overall ppg is hurt by that, but to say he never had great offensive numbers is flat out wrong. His NHL numbers are nice too, he's got the sort of game that translates to highly levels (like WJC, or NHL).
He was chosen as one of Canada's top three players. You have no idea what you are talking about if you didn't think he was one of their better players, skillwise. He exceeded my expectations.
You failed to read and are taking the conversation totally out of context. The guy said he'd never been a high scoring / skilled player, which is demonstrably false.
Oh stop I have been following this tournament closely since about 2005. Almost every year Canada has a few agitators who do these things
Like Getzlaf and Perry and Kesler? It isn't a Canadian thing any more that it is a Duck thing. Go away.
Their called idiots...not racists...unless they included something that was actually racist in their comments.
I mean at the end of the day, I had selected Comtois to be captain prior to the tournament and thought it was a good decision when he was named.
Nobody ever cloaks their bias? Idiots for sure, beyond that is fair speculation.
It's actually racist speculation, if you base it on nothing other than someones race.
Racist against the unknown race(s) of anonymous people on the internet? All we know about them is what they are saying, you can't get a situation with less possibility for discrimination. Or are you considering ignorant hockey fans a new category?
As per what I quoted originally...no.
I see.
It was a suggestion. I meant "take your baiting idiocy elsewhere, we aren't buying it" but I thought people would be bright enough to get that.
That's possible. Though the irrational negativity towards Comtois on hfboards is coming mainly from Canadians.
