Steen Path compared to Army Path - Poll

Post by a smell of green grass »

I'm curious to see what people expect from Steen. How would you compare the Steen path to the Army path?

A) Radically different
B) Somewhat different
C) No meaningful difference.

Explain your answer and why, and finally provide expected results in 3 years.

Me:
Option C. Steen only knows the Army way. Further, Army is upstairs and won't tolerate anything that looks like a "divergence". Further, Army's lieutenants are still overrunning the donut shop. Lastly, Steen was selected, groomed, and preached to be a carbon copy.

Results:
In 3 years, the club will SIT EXACTLY WHERE it sits today.
1) No potential HOFers. Not on the club. Not in the minors.
2) Contend for playoffs every year, but zero chance for Stanley Cup
3) Horrid Oct-Jan. Brilliant Feb-Mar.
4) The Profit Margin will remain stable for management
5) ASOGG will still be complaining

Given what I've seen from Steen so far, I have absolutely ZERO confidence in him. It looks like he's just a greener version of Army, and consequently prone to many more mistakes.

I'm going off-script today and having some pizzas with friends while hanging at the pool. Happy 250th America.

GMs are replaced when results are mediocre, bad, or not good enough. Everywhere, except St Louis. We celebrate and bathe in the mediocre results. We want the new rookie to "Carry On", like "Old Guy", and keep the old guy upstairs for extra measure. Army and his whole team should have been retired and ushered out with a smile, not permanently draped over the fireplace.

Poor BluesTalk. It's going to be as boring around here as a Blues Hockey game in December.

Why would you still be complaining? You said you were quitting and giving up on the blues for the umpteenth time. That’s confusing. Unless you lied again (and again).

Happy 4th, numb nuts, try and enjoy yourself for once.

10 days. The board was the best it's been. Please just stop responding in these threads. Yes, I realize the irony, but it's too late for this one.
