I strongly agree with everything you just stated because that's why I started to spent a lot of my free time on this website and even more so during the pandemic (almost 10 000 posts damn), to discuss with other fanbases and learn from it. Discussing hockey also really helped me improve my second language which I will forever be grateful for. However, for the past couple of months, I can barely recognize it. Constructive criticism is languidly disappearing in the ACGM section and the line we're supposed to draw has never been grayer and my ignore list that I never really used has become fuller than I would have liked. I am just stating the Red Wings fan laugh laugh you know I'm talking about as an example, a lot of users seem to be missing the point of a forum.

Just my two cents, BeterChiarelli. It's nothing against you, nor against any of the mods, as I really respect the work you do and I enjoy thoroughly reading your posts.

Happy Bday!

Fr

I was thinking just as an all around player he could play PP and PK, offence and defence (maybe not well but he can do it), and would be a better all around player with the hands and the shot

The 2nd year is huge. A very promising prospect to keep an eye on this season.

That AGM ship has sailed. We had so much fun during the first 2020 lockdowns (I remember I posted like 8 teams per day lol, sometimes even 10), during the bubble and during the 2020 offseason but since then it's been a trainwreck, a dumpster fire with little to no common sense, which reminds me this quote, «Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment. Because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it». So yeah, AGM is never returning to the level it once was, and tbh I'm cool with that, we have fun here and I'm planning on creating a similar thread to this one but for the 21-22 season (including the playoffs). I probably won't be much active because of my piloting classes but yeah, AGM is never coming back, which is why I don't think I'll ever return there.


Yeah, I was a huge AGM poster until I discovered the forums and we started making these threads, i don’t check AGM now, the only reason i do is to post my GM Game team or to check a post one of you made

So is Poehling not making the roster this year? He definitely should and having him at league min for 2 years is huge

I don’t know why, but there’s this Stars fan who thinks that Faksa is making Comeau and Cogliano worse just because of the stats. I mean if you ever watched a Stars game you know that this is 100% bullsh*t.

I’m not even exaggerating if you’re at the hospital and watching Comeau and Cogliano play with your nan. She will 100% unplug her life support. If blind people ever complain about lack of vision at least they don’t have to watch that atrocity. I’m literally not kidding if you change the channel to a Stars game and Comeau and Cogliano are on the ice the TV will either change channels by itself or just unplug itself.

Didn’t watch any stars games but in theory Faksa should be way better than Comeau and Cogliano

Ask @justaBoss about how painful it is to watch those two play. I still can’t believe to this day that this man stays awake til 3AM just to watch that atrocity, true dedication on your part my friend.

Not every night, but around 50 games during a normal regular season.

And yes, the pain is real - but nothing compared to the times we had Niemi and Lehtonen as our goalies. The defense was so atrocious back then.

Bro you’re giving me PTSD when mentioning those two disgusting names.

It’s hard to believe the Stars were all offence no defence at on point.

Lehtonen was a great goalie tho, like seriously one of the most underrated ones of the 10s

Phaneuf was physically damaged by the end of his career, while Ekman-Larsson just stopped trying because he played in Arizona maybe? At least I hope for Canucks fans.

Key word: was

He was good, but at the end of his stint with Dallas he was very finished (no pun intended).

Lindell came after those. Trevor Daley and Alex Goligoski were the deal back then.

I’m just going to take a moment to think about the fact that Brisson makes more money per year than any player in the NHL. And he can keep working forever, since agents don’t get worse with age.

Thinking about this, Brisson likely makes more money than anyone involved in the NHL other than the owners, which is absolutely insane.

(Granted I don’t think it’s public knowledge what GM salaries are, but I can’t imagine they’re this high)
