I just read the Gelinas line. C’mon, 5 minutes and you know he’s an absolute stiff with a slap shot.

Re: General Hockey Shit
I thought he was pretty good that one game he played against the Habs like three years ago on his first stint up with the Devil's. I will fucking fight you about this, Mike.

In the NHL, sure.
We are talking about the AHL, where he's pretty decent. If he wasn't good enough for the AHL, he would never have played nearly 200 NHL games (189).
I'm not saying he's an NHL defenceman, but he's more than good enough to be part of a winning AHL roster.
Just like Chris Terry is an NHL stiff, but dominates the league.

Re: General Hockey Shit
Gelinas is a stiff, AHL,ECHL, NAHL. He'll get 10-15 goals anywhere but he can't play. If they have a hardest shot comp, he's your guy though.

Re: General Hockey Shit
Gélinas was as bad as ever in the AHL this season, he was out of the line-up and was playing on the third pairing for most of the first half. Mike is right, the guy is a stiff with a slap shot.
What about Baker who says we can't debate with him because the motto of the organisation was "No excuse" at some point? What about that? Hum?

Re: General Hockey Shit
Limiting myself to only reading the previous five posts, this appears to be a thread regarding the efficacy of Martin Gelinas' play in the minor leagues with a dash of Ontario home cooking charm.

Your proof is that "he was out of the lineup and playing on the third pairing"... of course, those are coaching decisions. Also part of the reason he was scratched early in the season is the 7 player Veteran rule in the AHL and they had 8 vets and had to rotate the healthy scratches before guys like Froese got called up.
But, again ask why a good coach couldn't get a 26 year old with 189 NHL games under his belt to be able to succeed at the AHL level. He obviously did well enough in other organizations to earn long NHL looks. Why was he in the third pairing or out of the lineup in this organization? Why can't our coach get AHL calibre play out of him?

Re: General Hockey Shit
Overall for the thread though, I've read a lot of excuses as to why Lefebvres record sucks, why he isn't developing prospects, and all that.
What I'm not reading... what has he done well. What has he done that makes him worthy of a promotion? No one has answered that.

Re: General Hockey Shit
if we can go back to the interview tape and the conspiracy thingy...
They ended the interview with the Therrien "that's second guessing" clip. When they posted the interview, they left that part in. I believe when they re-posted they took that part out.

OOOH yeah life goes on, long after the thrill of Vinny is gone
It's too bad all the people that could really run the Habs are busy doing talk radio, writing blogs or posting on message boards.
Now, Lajoie is an imbecile, a cretin and a plagiarist, who to use author Dany Laferrière's deliciously withering expression, "lives beyond his intellectual means."

Artie, with what you know and what you've surmised, if Bergevin truly believed Sly was the man for the job, but knew he'd be crucified on the airwaves/print etc. for the status quo , would he make a move ?

Re: General Hockey Shit
Yes I do.
Whether BS, window-dressing or paranoid concern, Molson has 5-7 points that he wants to address
Development of the younger talent is key.
I think we may see martin Lapointe with a more prominent role with the Rockets.
I can see Larry Carriere being phased out.
My take is that Syl has been a good soldier and done what has been asked of him. Prep those he has to play with the big club. That may change as they start to stock pile more assets than they may need. Skill and player development may be broader based at this point.

There's a carpool parking lot just off the 401 there. That's how you do it in the country, we don't need indoor transit infrastructure to fight in like you city Nancies.
