Noel the court jester?

[seasontixholder*]

Since Noel is the king of juggling, is he a court jester? Can we start a poll? How many times does he juggle the lines tonight? I'm thinking at least twice.

We'll see some shake up of lines in the first 5 minutes, book it.

We get it, you don't like Noel. Lets see someone else coach the Jets who have 6-7 legitimate NHL forwards in the line-up.

Proof is in the pudding, last years Jets third line consisted of three guys now out of the NHL, no other NHL team even gave them a sniff. And some thought last years Jets were a play-off calibre team.

Not necessarily true... one was given an offer but went elsewhere.

On top of this, this form of logic only works if you consider those players worse than every single NHL player in the league... I bet not one of the 30 GMs believe that for any of the 3 players. The year after a cap fall always has a huge amount of vets leaving the league (some temporarily, some permanently). Just economics.

Do we really need yet another Noel thread? Yeah Noel juggles his lines alot. He's certainly not the only NHL coach who juggles his lines. Selanne commented that Boudreau changes lines like he changes underwear.

New poll question: How many Noel threads are we going to juggle?

Closed.
