The Official MERB 2010-2011 NHL Hockey Thread

[lgna69xxx]

Yea, that other thread is for Lord Stanley's Cup. I think Wilson is a good coach and doesnt get a fair shake in the centre of the Hockey Universe, aka, Toronto. He is a tough hard nosed coach but when he gets the most out of his players and they start to win, i have a feeling he is one of the most loyal guys you could ever play for. Sort of like a Bill Parcells type of coach. He doest give a crap how people see him, including the players and you either play hard or your gone, alot of young players can benefit from a guy like that. Anyways, lets see what happens when Burke gets him a couple more players they lack, then if Wilson does not lead them to the playoffs, then he needs to go, but i doubt that is gonna happen anytime soon :thumb:

Dragged me back to the NHL thread eh!?

Well, it's true Leaf players never quit on Wilson... but that's because they never bought in in the 1st place. Now, Ronnie was good at 1-time... circa 1999-2001 Caps. I don't count his Sharks yrs because he was given a Lightning team so any human with a mouth wouldve succeeded in SJ 2002-08, even John MacLean! lol

You might wanna re read what i wrote instead of playing your "twisting" games like you love to do, and seem to do in just about every thread you post on these days.

Ask any player who played for the Giants under Parcells and a overwhelming majority, IF NOT 100% would say the same about the man as what i wrote, that he is a tough SOB but gets the most out of his players, and hey, the players didnt have to love the guy, but they did need to give their all or they would of been cut or benched. All i did was compare him to Wilson being the old school tough on his players type of coach, but probably has a great relationship with them that we never get to see behind the scenes. I had a coach like that so i know how it works. I was not talking about loyalty to the patriots and could care less about that part of his coaching life. get a grip boy.

Bill Parcells negotiated with the Jets for a contract WHILE he was supposed to be preparing the Patriots for Super Bowl XXXI against the Packers. That's not loyalty, it's being a selfish scumbag who betrayed his team at the ultimate moment.

Welcome back c, now dont go crazy and start posting 16 posts in 10 minutes like your unraveling days before... you ok now? better? good :thumb:

steve y gets credit for one thing, hiring a 41 year old Roloson who if he did not stand on his head, tampa would of not even made the playoffs. More like good for Rollie and not steve y Rollie actually made steve y look good. Wonder if he gets re signed?

I wonder who Vinny L is getting traded to because no way they can keep him and sign Stamkos to a 7-9 million a season deal this summer. No way Tampa can afford to keep those 2 and St Louis.

Can't argue with anything you wrote, but please have some sympathy for lg. It's clear that he could not understand the post he quoted, but if someone explained it to him I'm sure he would retract his response.
