It's like he watched a documentary about Basquiat and tried to imitate it without either the talent or understanding.

I'm guessing they're replacing Carrick on the 2nd pair and remaking the 3rd?

There's no guarantee either make the team next year, they're both on 2-year ELCs. More about having depth, there aren't a lot of guys on the Marlies who can step in when injuries happen.

That's true. Whatever makes Hunlak go away is fine by me.

I know the reflex is to defend your team but that was a team that went 21-51-10.

They had as many wins as they did in 12-13, a 48 game season.

I don't know maybe don't give a terrible contract to a player that had a career year that was ~250% increase on his point production up to that point in the NHL.

ville got paid way too much, there's no disputing that. that has nothing to do with him crying and talking about his time here like being in jail. he left buffalo and never scored more than 10 goals in a season in the slew of european leagues he bounced around in, because he sucked rear end.

With full no movement clause
Ville Leino was once traded for Ole Kristian Tollefson and a 6th round pick.

I fully realize that it's just treated the same way as coach of the year or the leadership award, except even dumber because youre trying to isolate the current year of GMing, but how do they even pretend to justify nominating Dorion?

There was a CBC graphic tonight that went something like:
Chia (first playoffs since whenever)
Poile (first conference finals)
Dorion (got the job as gm)

No one's making GBS threads on him for pursuing his interests. They're making GBS threads on him because his art is bad, like most artists'.

it's very cool that he has something to do and a new passion, and its also very funny because his art sucks and he made a t shirt of his lovely art.
