Y not.

That is my reaction to a lot of the main forum threads.

I need a good "u wot m8" or something on this image.

I just want to add something. When a guy does such a great job there is no reason to visit the main boards except to laugh at trade offers for your own players which are not moving lol its a pretty awesome season before the season.

P.S. I wish Ken Holland would have gotten that memo

 

[More 2004]

I'll play. There isn't any other GM I'd rather have.

I know this is an old article, but this just shows how classy SFY is. I'm so lucky that the franchise that I LOVE has this man at the helm.

BUUUUMMMMMPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!

A reading from the book of Stanley 2:1

And Yzerman said, "Yea my brethren, I have brought thee to the promised land. Fear not as you skate upon it. For the holy chalice is reserved to only those who are most righteous in its eyes. You who are privileged to be here are among those men. For I have made this team in my image."

All praise to the Yzergod!

**Edit, should it be Yzerjesus and Vinikgod?**

 

[These Are The Days]

I think Yzerman will do

It's old news but seriously... well done Steve. Well done to THE best GM in hockey. It's been a long time coming. When you have to trade Connolly and put Panik on waivers because the forward depth is just too good you know you're doing something right.

I saw that some fans had posted some new fan pics with SFY at the Ivan Hlinka Memorial Cup in Czech Republic these last couple of days, do we have anyone there playing or do anyone know any other reason for him to be there, maybe he’s doing some scouting of his own.

No, we don't have any prospects there. Nobody does. It's a U-18 (under 18 years old) tournament and the majority of players are 2016 or 2017 draft eligible. It's possible he's scouting.




Here's a long interview with Yzerman
