My advice, cool it on the idiot talk. It doesn’t help your argument.

I think it makes more sense to call up Ruzicka this year, and Pelletier the next.

Yup especially with us needing an upgrade on centre. Let Jakob be a back ace and play if needed.

Why is it rude? Brian Burke is a solid hockey guy but let's face facts, his drafting history sucks.

You literally just accused a poster of being the person whom you had just called an idiot. You don't see how that's rude?

You’re moving the goal posts. Burke’s draft record isn’t a strong suit but he certainly isn’t an idiot.

Your sense of humor isn't a strong suit is it?

Honest question, do you really think that was funny? I didn’t think it was particularly funny or witty. It was a pretty low rent comment in my opinion. If you did have something funny to say I would probably acknowledge it but that was pretty far from it.

I've actually made money writing humour. It's a very different art form from being funny in person. In writing, you aren't half as funny as you think you are.

We have something in common, maybe I know you!, I admit I'm lacking funny writing skills, I'm better in person when i can show my crazy face

It's almost certain that you don't know me, alas. I've made money at it, but not much money; it was never a regular gig. But I did do enough to find out just how hard it is.

The occasional humorous remarks I've made on CP more or less just happened; the stuff that makes money takes a lot of work and repeated revision. So for those in the peanut gallery wishing to blow raspberries, that is why I don't say funny things here very often. Drop a loonie in my hat and I'll try harder.

I hope the give Pelletier a shot at some point in the season. He seems to be doing well in the minors (17 pts in 15 games).

I’m thinking it would be good to find an upgrade for Pitlick and I think Pelletier might fit that bill.

This is so true. I often chuckle at a thought I've had, but when I post that same thought, it doesn't translate and gets lost in the sea of comments. If I read that same comment on another day and in a different mindset, I realize how dull it actually was



Anyways, your all an bunch of jerks, and its you're breath that smells' poor.
