Bird bones Sutter is only about five times better, who's absence BTW, is probably why he's still here.
Solid observation.

Same with easily figuring out a guy like Highmore. Or people watching a few shifts in preseason and thinking Bowey finally has it figured out and can contribute consistently at the NHL level.

Sure, but isn't he just repeating what everyone at this goddamn messageboard has said?

"Sutter, who's absence BTW, is probably why he's still here" :roll:

Is there anyone here who thinks Petan is anything more than a replacement player?

I mean Mick was responding to Dude who despises players like Petan than anyone here.

(sounded like he was trying to lecture the Dude on Petan) :lol:

Don't encourage him to blather on Carl, he's posted 37% of the preseason GDT posts!

I'm just trying to give positive reinforcement like you would to a child.

Look, if you guys aren't going to outright ban him then I'm going to give praise when it adds to hockey discussion and admonishment when it's #postcount garbage.

I'm no extremist.

Yeah, I'm no fan of his GDT hoggery, but let's be honest, my record sucks. I hope everyone here tries to start a GDT or two... regardless of whether you're a newb or regular.

Well of course you are.

But as the Good Book says:

"Spare the rod, spoil the child."

(so if there's anything... anything at all... that can be criticized in the post, smack him good!)

Does this mean more than Fred needs to pee in the middle of the night?
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.
