Hopefully we get a top pick in the 2014 Forum Draft.
I know, I know...and there's of course going to be a few busts along the way (Job Hopper, Patrick Bateman, etc...) but we've just got to stick to the plan.

Who knows, maybe we'll even be able to reacquire some of those guys along the way. We could certainly use their experience to show the new guys how it's done.

You guys know that I have a NMC, you can't trade me to any Oiler or Canuck or Toronto fan boards for prospects unless I completely agree to that.

I don't think so. Some posters can be rough on each other, it can be an intimidating place. I posted like twice in my first 3 years here because I was too nervous. But it turned me into the monument of success and glory that you see before you today.

Success and Glory.

You can't be banned. The community requires your military knowledge.

Spent time in the minors, eh? I just hopped right in. Seems to have worked out for me.

That's because we're in a rebuild and it isn't too hard to crack this lineup.

Oxymoron ?

Anyway, to return to the Cammy discussion...the main reason I wanted him traded was to be able to buy a half-price Cammy jersey next year (either #93 or #13)...

Pfftt, you're not even a 2001 when this version was launched. A lot of the early people came over from the original board (called Fire in Ice then I think). I remember it having a black background which was really hard to read, so I was pretty happy when this one replaced it.

#13 will be Johnny Gaudreau next season.

If Burke signs Cammalleri to an extension after all of the crap he's said about truculence and size, the guy won't have much credibility left in my eyes. He'll slip back into the Tubby McBlowhard camp IMO.

That isn't always a bad thing to be a little afraid. There are plenty of examples of people with 10+ posts per day that start spamming the board on day one of their membership who are absolutely horrid posters.

Time to listen and observe can give you perspective.

More importantly he needs to cough up the box of beer before he can be banned

I've read these boards for years but only just started posting. There are so many people on here that eventually someone posts my opinion.

Too bad about MMF, he gave us gems like this:

One of these days Table, you're going to slip up and end up on the sidewalk after a hit from the ban hammer, nowhere to go but the Flames Community message board, and, pending on level of desperation, the HF Flames board.

I will wait quietly in the shadows until such time presents itself
