I had heard this line of questioning and public singling out growing up in the USSR.
Since then it's rubbing me the wrong way. Sorry, but I feel that strongly about that.
My biggest appreciation of the US in the phrase:" I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it."
Mods, anonymous polls should be allowed, so that folks do not feel like they are being feathered and tarred.
By the 'sarcasm' emoticon I had hoped people would understand I was joking... This joke originated with the announcing of the way to tell who voted for what... In all reality I believe that everybody should have their opinion and choice, not matter if it runs against the grain of popular -- or in this case mass -- opinion. I am not a Grossmann hater, but do believe that with everything considered MDZ is better for the Flyers needs and future... and has a better upside and potential. I do however believe that the Flyers need his type of D-man, as every team needs at least one, although I greatly wish his Cap Hit was much lower.
All that said... while it was in jest... I seriously (in a mild way) wouldn't mind hearing the rational behind voting for Grossmann over MDZ on that question... and if they decide to share it, I believe that this Thread would become interesting, where it now frankly is far from that.
If there is a feeling that I outed the trio... even though everybody has the ability to find out how people voted... and was given instructions before I made that post... if there is a belief by anyone on here, then I apologize to them.
With that... anybody want to share why they believe Grossmann is a better D-man than MDZ?
