Would like to suggest to remove OOTs in favour of 8 series threads.

I'd rather not have to wade through 100 comments of Canuck fans to talk about the Washington game; or wade through Pittsburgh comments to read/talk about the Flyers game. etc.

Mods. What you think?

With a poll added on who the winner will be.

Sure, give it a try. The only downside I can see is at the beginning that's 8 threads.

Well we can only hope that will kill some of these other threads popping up.

I vote dobbles for doing them all since he started the first one!

What are the chances they could be stickied? I know it will be cluttered but just thinking it will only be 2 weeks max and then it will go down to 4, 2 then 1 so it won't be too bad.

I say go for it. I know the vast majority here appreciate the GDTs we have when HD or someone else puts in some pics/stats/injuries, etc.

Better than eight "I hate Sutter" threads in their place...

Loving this idea it keeps my Canuck bashing concentrated on just one thread.

I thought this was going to be about all the TV series threads that are in the OT forum.

I like the series threads.
