I mean - and I suspect this has something to do with your view here - I pretty assertively disagreed with you about Stralman as a hockey player, because your perspective was essentially the opposite of what I perceive to be reality. In doing so, I attacked your idea rather than you, and supported mine with an argument and some evidence. That seems to me to be a much more positive contribution to the discourse than someone just spouting off without any basis for or knowledge of what they speak, even if they do so in a pleasant and cheerleader-like manner.
I mean, if you were having a conversation about, say, the benefits of living in Calgary vs. Winnipeg, and someone chimed in "but Winnipeg is larger and warmer than Calgary", would your reaction not be something along the lines of a shocked "what the hell are you even talking about?"

Your exchange with me is just one example of where you take an abrasive position with posters.
I'm trying to give you some advice here because if you continue with how you post currently - it will be dealt with in other ways. You have good things to say - just think about changing how you say them.
With that I've de-railed this thread enough. Sorry folks .
