    Not here.

    There some concerns, etc., but nobody's jumping off any bridges. The future really does look bright.
    The way I look at it, we've already been through the awful. I'd like to see Tony get his time along with all of his kids to work with and go from there.

      Grannen is from the Milwaukee area.

      BTW, Nuetral Zone has a free feature up on American-born USHL and NTDP likely Top 115 player rankings born in 2002. Latsch, Laatsch, Roepke, Kehrer and Grannen are all listed.
      Forgot his jersey??? hmmm... Maybe North Dakota is a better fit...

        I once heard a guy say somewhere, "there are a lot of idiot fans out there." Guy wasn't wrong.

          First Rich, what is WFO?

          Second for Wisko, the "local rink manager" was incorrect. The team at that time was a train wreck and he guaranteed getting fired with that comment about the fans that have supported him for decades. He lost me with that comment and I won't forget. With any team there are going to be a few dopes, but the vast majority are reasonable.

            Nobody ever said the vast majority aren't reasonable. Ever read the tweets to Milewski during and after games? There ARE a lot of idiots. "A lot" might be 100, or 50, or whatever -- if their vocal and stupid, it doesn't take much to constitute "a lot". IIRC, even Heller's response was, "Well... he wasn't wrong."

            As far as Shuey goes, great guy who did his best, worked his *** off, and bled 10 years of his life for this program. 10 seconds of ill advised frustration comes out and the result was he got fired. What more do you want from him? Jail time? I'd say get over it, but folks do like to hold onto their grudges.

              This reminds me, aren't we due for someone to dig up the "I'm not a hockey guy" Alvarez quote?

                going off twitter replies is not reasonable by any measure.

                as far as the other topic, you brought it up....

                  I would say it's the vocal minority, they type who would ***** about the doneness of a free porterhouse steak and that noodles in the free lobster mac and cheese were overcooked.

                    Oh, I agree. Calling them a minority isn't even accurate though as a minority at the KC could be 7000 people. It's a small number out of the whole. I could still call them "a lot" though given the size of the whole and their passion for "a lot" of demonstration.

                      Wide ****ing Open. There was a YUGE sign hanging in the Coliseum in the late 70s to early 80s that simply said "WFO". I was always told it had something to do with what Scott or Todd Lecy shouted on the ice; can another old ****er elaborate?

                        I remember the sign, I think the translation is right.... but that's all I got.

                        There are some really good Euro's available, but sometimes it's tough to get them in school. If that's even what they want. A good deal of the time they are looking to get noticed and sign a pro deal.

                        More Euros would be good by me, but they do have to get a little North American hockey going for them, too. I love Weissbach and he could really be a superstar here, but I did notice he had just 2 blocked shots on the year. With all that ice time you'd think you couldn't help but get hit by a couple more than that!

                        Or maybe he just wasn't quite quick enough to get out of the way of those two?

                          Oh being Swedish he's fast enough, just not North American. I don't think Euros WANT to get in the way!😉

                                Oz liked a couple tweets about Ville Pokka from Finland. Haven't heard anything about this kid.
