And him shifting all over MacKinnon and Makar made sense? He was adamant that in the 2020 WJC Jamie Drysdale was Canada’s best D. I linked to the final game TOI where Drysdale played six minutes and Byram played 22. He completely ignored that point and started ragging on the kid big time when he went back to Vancouver. I think Byram went on to score like 50 points in 30 games for the Giants after that. The Chef got buried.Cousin Strawberry wrote: ↑Fri Nov 05, 2021 6:47 amThis one never made sense.

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
I honestly doubt he has much of an opinion on any of these players but loves to get you all fired up. That's his motivation for projecting busts on BC born prospects.Vin Tanner wrote: ↑Fri Nov 05, 2021 6:59 amAnd him shifting all over MacKinnon and Makar made sense?

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
That’s all well and good but none of those three are from B.C. Neither is Byfield or Turcotte. Nobody is fired up but I do enjoy dunking on him once a week.

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
The Ol Chef must be enraged seeing how well Kenny Holland’s team is doing. Remember how often the Chef crapped on Poolparty and Holland. For no reason really… other than his own rage.
Great goal by McJesus tonight.
Meanwhile we have Elias Poutersson all 6 ft 2 and 113 pounds of him sniveling and whining all over the ice and looking as effective as Lars Molin.
No idea why Chef craps all over 95 % of the league and it’s good young players but thumps his chest at a 4-6-1 juggernaut.
Chef….. your thoughts?

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
Stevie Y has done a great job fixing the mess Kenny BC Holland left behind, 3 great draft picks in a row since taking over. Seider, Raymond, Edvinsson. I think Rob Blake has to rebuild the rebuild or they need to fire his ass

How is Poolparty doing? Remember the guy you used to say was way worse than Olaf.

Speaking of OJ...I guess he got injured in practice for the Panthers before he ever saw the ice and has yet to play a minute for them.Vin Tanner wrote: ↑Sat Nov 06, 2021 8:42 amChef Boi RD wrote: ↑Sat Nov 06, 2021 8:21 am Stevie Y has done a great job fixing the mess Kenny BC Holland left behind, 3 great draft picks in a row since taking over.

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
Still a lot better than you gave him credit for and a lot better than Olaf. No idea how someone could completely write off the three kids in Colorado. “Not even worthy of being first round picks”
Yet you STILL can’t say Olaf was a shitty pick. Agenda much?

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
I don’t know yet. He was drafted two years ago. I don’t tend to shit all over players months after they were drafted. Olaf was drafted five years ago. Turcotte is 20. Olaf is 23.Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Sat Nov 06, 2021 8:57 amWas Turcotte a shitty pick at 5th overall?Vin Tanner wrote: ↑Sat Nov 06, 2021 8:52 am Still a lot better than you gave him credit for and a lot better than Olaf.

For comparison reasons 8th overall pick from the 2020 draft Jack Quinn has 6 goals 6 assists in 8 games in the AHL.
Your Boi Turcotte (drafted 5th) is not looking good, you know it

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
He’s not my boi. I said he looked good at the WJC, probably USA’s second best player at the tourney. The same USA team you cheered for.
He’s 20 years old. I’ll wait a bit before calling him a bust. A disappointment for sure, but not a bust yet. Olaf is a bust.
