Happy birthday Terry...........So now that you're a year older, and after watching last nights "game" d'ya think we need a new coach or do we just give McT a life, no-cut contract??........ -

I thought that's what coaches did..........Took lots of talent and made it into a team..........Instilled discipline........Made them want to win...........The Rangers management obviously think they know something that Edmonton doesn't........We'll see....... -
Nice try Allan... Now you KNOW why I love whities...........End of thread..........

That gets the juices going!!....Thanks.......I had a half day of that in Cuba last year..........Wow!!........I had a bunch of pike poppers with me and they hit them like candy...........Most fun I have EVER had........ Belize in July this year...........S'posed to be prime poon season so if you can stand the heat............I love the heat!!!

Good advice Monger but I'm no good at jigs and smelts anymore.......Some would say I'm no good with a flyrod either but hey...........And yah, Brad, enough with the "old" stuff...........Clive and I just got back from a great afternoon on the bench at Walmart watchng all the young chicks go by...........Can't remember though why we watch them..........Also got my new hearing aids ordered today so look out..........We're getting jackets made with the A.G.F.T. logo on them so that everyone will be able to recognize us on stream this year........

Right on!!.......Moreau is a good tough leader but he costs us a goal a night with his lack of discipline.......Horcoff is hot and cold but I agree that if the coach is going to get something going he has to get his veterans motivated.........I just don't see a reasonable ratio of return/talent.......As you said they can't trade the whole team so........... -

I know AYR says I'm not qualified to talk about the Oilers but last night was almost predictable........We have a 39 year old goalie who is the only one who's performing..........But it CAN'T be the coaching..........No, certainly not.......Hey we only have one first line guy (AYR's comment) so it can't be the coaching.............Jeeeeeeeez!! -

Good post Rick and I'm glad someone is going to defend them because they may need it one day.......I was intriqued by your comments on how Galveston Bay was once full of tarpon that nobody fished for.........I'm with you---tarpon are the ULTIMATE game fish and if I could catch only one species for the rest of my life it would be tarpon.....Good post....... Oh and by the way, Clive SAYS that he and his grandkids have caught lake whities at Chin but I have never seen him even get a strike.....Now that may be my curse or could it be that he's, well, LYING??

I hate to say this but Dryfly and I are experiencing "selective whitefish" more and more this winter........We target them on the Oldman and Crow in the winter since we both subsribe to the "tug is the drug" philosophy (I love that expression)........Snce last November we've had several quite humbling experiences with the maligned RMWF........I fully agree with those posts who liken them to bonefish in all but a few characteristics---i.e. speed, fight, stamina, water temp., selectivity, spookiness, bragability,---shall I go on?? And by the way, if you want to get into some SERIOUS lake whitefish action on the fly, get Dryfly to take you out one evening to his secret spot at Chin Reservoir..........the action is absolutely non stop..........

I know you said I'm not "smart" enough to debate this issue, Ayr, but are you McT's cousin??.....Brother??........Roommate?? -

Morrow-Moreau--so I can't spell.......Birchy, I don't think the mighty Quinn is in the mix anyway with return of his ailment.......How about Craig Hartsburg??.......Jeeez I can't believe I said that---I can't stand the guy and I think his record with Ottawa speaks for itself........How about Ayr??.......Seems to have some thoughts.........Ooops forgot---he likes McT.......... -

Some good points, Ayr.......I disagree however with the "only one first line forward" observation.....Hemsky for sure and perhaps Morrow.......But look at all the young talent on that team and compare it to Chicago........Why aren't we getting better??..........Coaching!!.....I like McT as well but we've changed almost everything in the past 15 months and now we need to finish the job........How can a team that showed so much promise be mired in mediocrity at this point of the season??..........Let's face it---they aren't getting better and that's what good coaches do..........They take young talent and make it better.......With the likes of Cogliano, Nilsson, Gagne, Pouliot, etc., etc. they just aren't reaching their potential........And lets face it, guys like Grebezkov don't belong.........That's Lowe's job...........We have lots of raw material, now just need the management to make it into something great...........I too am a fan but it's painful to watch so much potential go unrealized...........I'm doing the same with my Lethbridge Hurricanes and for the same reasons........ -

Only decent if you like mediocrity........They should never have gone to overtime in SL.......Yeah, they lost to the Wings which was expected but with mistake, after mistake, after mistake today they were lucky to get a point...........The players are better than that and I agree with all who've said it's time for a coaching change..........And MMAX, I think Lowe should go with him........... -
