Well this thread took a weird turn. Hopefully MT is good to go soon enough. Love his gritty style of game.

Please. He transformed nothing. He adds a dimension, but I’d take Bennett over him all day.
Do you think the Panthers are what they are today if it is Huberdeau there instead of MT (and that being the ONLY difference)? I'd say not a chance in hell...
Swap tkachuk for Huberdeau on this current team and they are a juggernaut still yes.

Barkov is by far their best player and leader. And like I said id take Bennett over Tkachuk all day in a 7 game series
Strange they lost in Round 1 with him
Strange they lost in epic record fashion with Tkachuk. The US couldn’t do it with 2 Tkachuks

Laughing
“Epic record fashion”….whatever.
They lost because Canada didn’t start Adin Hill.
Tkachuk lost in epic, NHL record fashion prior to the 4 Nations. I know it’s tough to keep up

From ignore to every day

Whatever you say princess.

What NHL record fashion? What record was broken? Who owned that previous record? It is tough to keep up with your lies.
How was MT selfish again?
You are so screwed up you can’t even keep your made up lies straight.
Try harder Princess. Enjoy your evening.

I agree, it was a bad move by the coach to dress him and only play him a couple minutes. Just because the player insists they are good to go because they want to help their team win that badly doesn't mean the coach should adhere. I was actually just talking to my fellow football coaches about how that's what we want to see from kids, rather than complaining about every little bruise - the ones who want it will play through anything, and it's the coach's job to hold them out. That same coach may have the same decision in the olympics, where Tkachuk is expected to play on Team USA after recovering from a sports hernia for which he had surgery in order to be healthy for the olympics and playoffs to help his teams win.

I asked a simple question early in the thread…respectfully. You refused to answer it…you actually seemed to run away from it like a little girl. Just calling you a liar Princess. You shouldn’t be surprised, you lie more often than most politicians.
How can I tell your lying or exaggerating the truth Princess? You’re posting on here.
You lie, everybody’s talking about it.

being involved in athletics for most of my life, it isn't even really the coaches job anymore to keep a player out or decide to dress them. That responsibility has been taken away from coaches at that level. The coach has next to 0 say of whether or not the player is going to go or not. If the training staff clears them (doctors, AT, strength and conditioning, etc etc.) the decision is made. The coach controls the decision on whether or not the player is good enough to play with the roster given in this case the GM. You are going to have a hard time living it down in 2025 if you don't let a player play who is deemed "worthy" by the fans. The coach 100 percent shouldn't be forcing players to play who are injured, which is why these barriers are put in place.

Yes, the coach gets to decide if backup Johnny's 100 percent is better than starter Billy's 50 percent. But again, that's not really the point here.

Your ongoing diatribe with him puts you one rung above his loser act. I put these trolls on ignore to avoid their garbage and you keep engaging and quoting him resulting in all his posts showing up anyway. Please ignore his nonsense or at least stop quoting him. Thanks in advance

69 is my highschool hockey number and still is. I was an oxy addict for 6months after i got shot be .38 revolve4r point blank while being robbed. You will never be able to use that against me in a bad way cause i am proud i turned it around and lived through it cause most dont. So thank you for acknowledging my victory in life. As for being a (Obnoxious person) in your moms basement. Its ok we get it you live a pathetic life. Its ok to admit that.

You are out of line Theo. You have no idea what this guy went through, nor really anything much about him, actually who he is. You need to be REAL careful. Do not make this kind of post again.

Bennett wouldn’t waste his time on Looch. I hope my boy Neighbours goes with him again.

He might not have a choice in the matter.
