We will now know the truth about touching the trophy. VGK stayed away from that thing like it had the plague.
Pretty sure a few several recent winners all touched it although some touch and some pick it up. In fact the caps did the year they beat Vegas.
Dale Tallon picked Owen Tippett over Nick Suzuki because Tippett could see the ice better and was a better leader. You read that right.
yea, he's a solid player and I think will find a home on the middle 6 in philly. I was more making a comment on good ole canadian tallon thinking a 1 dimensional winger could see the ice better than a kid of asian descent.
oh come on, suzuki was never supposed to develop that well. Vegas chose Cody glass over him when they traded for pacioretty. You are stretching it with the Asian descent aspect. But the general premise is right, Canadians tend to prefer Canadian players, just like Minnesota and Boston target guys from their area. Only mtl doesn’t are one bit about French Canadian players
I agree. I have been told that story by multiple people who were inside the draft room. Tallon legit didn't want to draft Suzuki because he thought he couldn't see as well on the ice.
Greeley out as GM. Wondering if it’ll be Darche. Also seeing rumblings about Spezza coming with Dubas
I heard more of semblance of a plan from Dubas in 20 minutes than I did from Hextall in 3 years. How refreshing.
must be cool being the CFO of a major corporation and having a side job in sports that could land you a GM gig.
“Is there a crime we should be concerned happened” “I gave you my card” You didn’t fucking answer the question.
Watching the memorial cup, there are no dirtier players in the world than ontarians. They seem to pride themselves on dirty play
