ecuhockeyguy-sb1 Report post Posted January 4, 2008 i am afraid such forum would be a bad place for me to be at. So... lets say you are at the game... and Brooks knocks Hossa out unconcious tonight... and then continues to bit him with his stick, and then other Canes get in start breaking their sticks of poor guy on eyes... Will you continue to cheer my hockey fan friend? the game is physical. very physical. and people get hurt, and yeah we are classless to a point in that case. BUT, there is still a line to be drawn. that would def be way over it. but class on a board is alot different than in a hockey game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
storm-rider Report post Posted January 4, 2008 I am seriously curious....do you all really think JR will put him on re-entry. Usually a team only does that if they are certain a player will get snatched up. Of course he will try and put him on re-entry waivers but he needs Grahame to play well first in Albany. That was why JR talked him up instead of stating how he actually felt, so it not damage his chances of unloading half of Grahame's salary. Grahame's recent comments aren't going to make JR happy though. Even if he doesn't get claimed on re-entry waivers, they can just sent him back to Albany. Samsonov didn't get claimed on re-entry and he was just banished to the AHL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samik-ch1 Report post Posted January 4, 2008 Denis was worse than Grahame in every way. GAA and SV%. Grahame's stats are also skewed by the game where Lavi kept him in against Buffalo. Any other coach would have pulled him. Grahame was also being a cocky SOB before the game. What comes around goes around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Camis1 Report post Posted January 4, 2008 I thought message boards were a place where anyone could post his/her opinion? Like someone mentioned earlier, free speech. If we are being, what some people call, "classless" that's our choice. But don't tell others they can't post what they think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ecuhockeyguy-sb1 Report post Posted January 4, 2008 And if Wardo comes in, we'll have a tired Ward against St. Louis tomorrow. but that is what happens with any team who plays a back to back and whose 1st goalie on the 1st game doesnt do well and has to be replaced by the goalie who was to start the next game. and if have seen that Ward can start back to back games and be ok, he can play half a game, then play a while next one. but if ward goes in and plays the first game, does badly, and Leighton comes in to relieve him, then its the same exact situation....what then?

IceFrog999 Report post Posted January 4, 2008 wow this coming from the guy who is always so negative and I mean that in a sincere kind of way. I'm negative, but never cruel. I wanted Grahame gone just as much as anyone, but now that he's gone, it's done and over with. There's no need to continue to put him down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

puckhead63 Report post Posted January 4, 2008 Wow ......19 pages of putting down Grahame.....I hope some of you don't think he's the reason for the slump and that a new goalie is gonna make it better. Gotta hope he never peeks in on this site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gotta hope he never peeks in on this site. The way many are posting, that's pretty much spot on. Just look on the main site: The poll - Who's going to have the biggest impact? Leighton with 50%. He's a backup goaltender. Our D will still be bad, we'll still have a crappy PK, and our PP will continue to waste their chances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have been called the stat guy on here, and I usually live up to that...just didnt that time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted January 4, 2008 Ok, after leaving for a short time an about 3 pages later, its clear to me that this thread is heading no where fast. If you want to vent frustrations about Grahame, take it to the "mad as heck" thread. Try to use a little class when posting though, you never know who reads this stuff. As for discussions about Grahame and re-entry waivers, if someone wants to start a new thread about it, we'll give it a try. If it turns into another bashing thread, it'll be locked quickly.
