Honest question - can you think critically at all? I criticized particular things people were saying which I don’t think are correct. People debate them, and that’s fine. But all you can say is “is he your uncle”? Well done.
Just deleted my snarky response. No reason to derail thread. My apologies.

My comment was a total drive-by, probably should have been "jeez, is he your uncle or something?" so the joking nature would have come across better. Still a useless comment on my part though.

I think the moderation here is great...I hardly notice it exists at all. Now and then someone pushes the limits of decorum trying to be funny and gets the post squashed. Otherwise terrible takes/opinions are given a super long leash...the mods just don't restrain themselves from arguing against them...often that means a snippy response which is the most those takes deserve.
OK. I never said anything about mods or anything like that. Got the wrong guy?
Just said that there are a couple of people that do nothing but troll and correct everyone which is annoying as heck since neither brings anything particularly insightful.

So if bingo asks everyone to let one of those people have an opinion, then why can't we apply the same logic to them? Their entire existence on here seems to be correcting others opinions.

Something that I think is overlooked with Sutter is how much he seems to have improved with every team he has coached.

Chicago Blackhawks: 1992–95 — playoff qualification 3-0; playoff series 2-3; playoff record 11-15
San Jose Sharks: 1997-2003 — playoff qualification 5-0; playoff series 2-5; playoff record 18-24
Calgary Flames: 2003–06 — playoff qualification 2-1; playoff series 3-2; playoff record 18-14
LA Kings: 2011–17 — playoff qualification 4-2; playoff series 10-2; playoff record 42-26

A friend of mine from VAN asked on the weekend if I was happy with Darryl back behind the bench.

I told him no joke that even if every other current NHL head coach was available, together with guys like Gallant and Boudreau, my first choice would still be Darryl.

He is hands down the right man at the right time for the Flames.

I thought you were referring to two mods. Otherwise I'm not sure who you're referring to...there are plenty of terrible takes to go around...the best remedy for trollish behaviour is to ignore it. But it's just a message board, so who cares.
