  1. salut-bien chers amis allhabs
    merci pour le podcast.
    holy smoke.lots of stuff to talk about eh,,,
    some thoughts/impressions?
    trade away our capitaine,shea weber?never and a day.
    eat the salary cap$$$,whatever it is.and hope for miraculous return to form.he means more than the $$$.point a la ligne.
    joe sakic on our CH62.”everything that we scouted,expected and hoped for and more,,,”.hmmm,we drafted him for the same qualities.why then send him away?he was doing all that and more for us!!!never and a day.another jewel signe trevor timmins lost.
    geneology to supercede talent/skill and ability in sport?
    simple response.discrimination and racism.point a la ligne.
    very disturbing.
    memorial cup upcoming.edmonton is really strong.always strong teams from out west eh.hamilton,i followed them somewhat this season.rivals with our 67’s.very strong club. play with rather arrogant tendencies at times???2 teams from quebec,dont know too much for them.wish all 4 teams well.
    guhle is a man amongst boys it seems?the 2 hamilton kids,they have skill/talent and hockey i.q.off the charts.
    hmmm,who drafted these kids,,,?some guy named timmins???
    when incoherence rules,eh.a terrible thing.
    “luke don’t go.you are the coach behind the titled head coach.”
    entry draft?not a fan of these “combines”.”interviews”.”put on display agendas” in general.they are kids.adolescent/teens.
    let them be that.not neccessary to put them thru all these hoops.if it was me,i would not participate in these agendas.if the scouting world wants a report,they can recieve it from my menteurs;the coaching staff.point a la ligne.for me,it’s
    narciccistical,megalo-mania like stuff.the wrong way to promote a team sport.little anectdote:when the 5 sutter brothers were being scouted,coach was interviewed.”but we want to know more,about their character,etc.tell us more”,the scouting world demanded.coach replies:”you wanna find out about their character,go visit them on the family farm”.
    end of discussion.
    who to select?easy.kent and gorton will make the right call.whoever that may be?i have faith in these 2.
    cheers,
    merci pour l’ecoute
    portez-vous bien
    familleCH,toujours
