So @Rocket

It’s been a year since I replied

This board…

I’ll copy and paste…

You
what do you think of Foote’s hire?

Me
Hey man! Great to hear from you and so sorry I didn’t get back to you last time.

Well, as for Vancouver, Petterson is our cross to bear, worthless in a trade.
Tocchet realizes he’s not the one to get through to him, so he walks.
You know, a ton of people didn’t realize Foote was Tocchet’s assistant. He worked with the defense.
Now front and…

But honestly Foote is okay, except for when things don’t go well he’s just the guy with the rapist son

Manny Malholtra coaches the Abbotsford Canucks., and he’s good. A year or two away.

Abbotsford playing in Pacific Division Finals, and goaltender Arturs Silovs is playing great.
There’s hope

@Rocket again

Colorado is destined to meet Carolina
I know you don’t want to hear that they’re fast and young and awesome and coached to the teeth (still womdering how old school Rod Brind’amour is doing it).

Look out

@Rocket

Vancouver loses draft yet again and I’m okay.

The two wingers can go 1 & 2, hold on, San Jose mat take a D-mam in 2nd

Hmm, best d-man shoots left, premium on right hand D in the League.

Vancouver may end up with options of other winger, other D-man, or Caleb Malhotra (Manny Malhotra (former NYR, SJS, VCR, and current Vancouver farm tean coach)’s son).

Are you kidding me?
In a Center weak draft this kid has opened up to us?

Being Manny Malhotra’s son is just all kinds of work ethic snd good quality person.
Oh yeah, Manny’s sister married Vancouverite NBA Steve Nash.

Guaranteed safe bet not a “hookers & blow” casualty.

Plus he’s committed to a university for another year, Team Tank Year Two is on!

Tbh, I couldn’t stop laughing for a while after seeing this meme from last year’s NFL draft. IYKYK:

Knicks are on a roll. They just might… you know.

Last time they won the championship was 1973. The thing is: If you visit the Boston Garden, they have so many championship banners hanging from the 80s onward. The LA arena has banners from the 80s (Magic Johnson, Kareem), the Kobe Bryant years, Lebron etc. Chicago has them from the Jordan Pippen era. Same with Golden State, San Antonio, Miami etc.

But for some reason, people still want to call Madison Square Garden the center (Mecca) of basketball, when their last championship was 53 years ago. No tradition, no legacy… smh

Being a star athlete or a celeb makes you a target:

Yes! I’ve been a long-suffering Knicks fan since the early 1970s, when the juggernaut of Willis Reed, Walt Frazier, Earl Monroe, Dave DeBusschere and Bill Bradley won the 1973 NBA Championship. I was a season ticket holder in 1999 when the team of Patrick Ewing, Allan Houston, Latrell Sprewell, Chris Childs and Marcus Camby made it to the finals (only to lose to the San Antonio Spurs in five games). But the post-season 2026 team seems unstoppable and unbeatable. Fingers crossed that this is the year they win again (even better if they defeat San Antonio to do it).

Coupla comments on the NHL finals:

First, how is it possible that there are no Canadian teams in the finals?! It just doesn’t seem right.

Second, how is it possible that the final two teams are from cities where the temperatures in January rarely dip below freezing? I mean, ice is not normal in Raleigh, North Carolina, let alone steamy Las Vegas.

Well the Spurs won Game 7 against Oklahoma. Oklahoma roster wasn’t at full strength so it is Knicks and San Antonio starting Wednesday. Should be good. I want Knicks in 6.

It would be nice to have a championship banner hanging from the Garden rafters for the first time in 53 years.

Yeah, no wins since 1993 (Montreal over Gretzky and LA).

As long as its not Toronto.

Carolina is a spectacular team.
Won it in 2006, coach Rod Brindamour (BC boy!) Played back then.
100 playoff wins for Carolina, and Brindamour has played or coached in 98 of them.

I hope they trounce League darlings Vegas.
