@ #16

Everyone wants justice, until it hurts them

That's just a damn great line, and equally unique explanation....

What makes Elliotte great?

1. I read it in his calm voice and tone.
2. He does not read like he has ANY bias at all and gives a fair opinion on people.

Outstanding hockey writer.

FANTASTIC edition!

The Doan mention was awesome but so were these:

Quote:
14. Pegula's said all the right things over the past week, but as the team starts a seven-game, 11-day road trip, he's going to begin Stage 1 of a dressing room remodelling. New carpet, paint, etc. Little things like that go a long way.
Quote:
16. By the way, Buffalo isn't the only team about to beef up its scouting. Bob Murray is planning to upgrade his team's department, and the Ducks already have a good reputation.
Brian Burke actually "beef up" his scouting staff upon arrival too

Quote:
17. Murray didn't interview Cam Fowler at the NHL combine, but snared the Rookie-of-the-Year contender when the defenceman fell to 12th in the draft. Murray didn't need to talk to Fowler, because he'd coached him in minor hockey. Nice steal.
Interesting.

If Millbury thinks it's irrelevant then I guarantee it is relevant. What that guy knows about managing an NHL team could be written on the inside of a matchbook with a grease pencil.
