I was referring to the subject of the thread "Re: Congrats to Latal!!" and these comments have nothing to do this thread what so ever. I believe that we have already discussed this before, this is no place for "player bashing”.

I may be stepping on a few toes with this post and I may be stepping over the line but if you don't like what someone says or do not agree with it, you can always move on to the next post or thread without having to point out every post that you don't like or agree with.

lol sorry but thats hard for anyone in this group, which only really has the same 10 or so ppl posting everyday, if someone new comes and says something that those 10 ppl dont like they're over it like a fat kid on cake, they have to find everything wrong with the post and make the person feel as stupid as they can to make themselves feel better i guess, i dunno why really, I thought this was an opinion board but i musta been wrong sense most of the ppl outside the certain Clique in this group always get bashed for posting their opinion, Im sure everyone knows who those few are....

All he said was that these players weren't playing well and why he felt they weren't. I know that Junior doesn't put things in the most eloquent way but he has been posting that way before I started visiting these boards and well long before you started posting on here. He has been making these kinds of points for a long time about players, but now that he said something about Latal you say he is bashing.

You say these comments have nothing to do with the thread title, there have been other comments about Latal in this thread that had nothing to do with the title either and some of these were made by you. Sure alot of them were positive, but if we can only discuss and point out positive things, which seems like what you want everyone to do, what's the point of discussing things if you want to filter out some of our opinions.

You want to talk about bashing and criticizing, what do you think you are doing when you criticize other posters for their opinions? Looking back at your last dozen or so posts, you have made more posts and comments about what other people are saying than there is about hockey.You went as far to post the rules one time and if I remember correctly one of those rules is be tolerant of your fellow posters because there are varying opinions.

I may be stepping on a few toes with this post and I may be stepping over the line but if you don't like what someone says or do not agree with it, you can always move on to the next post or thread without having to point out every post that you don't like or agree with.

Why don't you try reading the post again, even "scorer" made a point about the content of the posting. And if you actually read the comments, you can see he's also bashing other players as well, like Doyle. These boys haven't played a Q game in a week, so why is he still whining. I was referring to the game in Czech Republic and updating this thread. And as I may point out, you seem to be contradicting yourself a little as you stated: “but if you don't like what someone says or do not agree with it, you can always move on to the next post or thread without having to point out every post that you don't like or agree with”. Are you not doing the same thing?

[Score]

I took a poke at Jr.......as I always do.

No big deal.....although, I don't agree with his statements about "Ego".

Jr is Jr......and my comment to him was not intended to start any BS up at all.

[Score]

Some people need to re-read what they write perhaps before they click the "post reply" button.

Post something useful and you'll get a conversation going......perhaps you should try as well!



Oh yea....congrats to Latal....hope Canada kicks your ass Boxing Day though! ;D ;D ;D

Due to the Fact That people don't understand my post i will make it a bit clearer for you to understand This thread is about latal Congrats on making it and stuff. Its all fine and dandy I am not totally bashing him Alls i am saying is what is the truth This is a topic on him and Truth be told he does need to smarten up. Now i am not just going to make a thread and trash latal due to the fact that he is a good player when he wants to be. But lately who has really seen him play good. And when u think i am totally bashing him i am not basically what i am saying is that he is not playing up to what he can near play and If his ego and play doesn't pick up he will see himself not going very far And thats basically the truth No team is going to want a player like that. I think i made my point loud and clear some may agree some may not BUT IMO Its what i think. Funny how u never said anything about doyle and just talking about latal Maybe due to the fact that its a thread about him but u kept doyle out of your little remarks there.

I'm afraid we still don't understand most of what you are saying, so I'll comment on the stuff I can(understand). It's pretty obvious that Latal is not playing anywhere near he potential, but who are you(and others) to judge his character by saying he(and Doyle) has an ego problem. You don't even know these kids, so how can you just blame there inconsistent play on their egos. There are many other factors involved in poor performance like player health and coaching systems. This applies to the entire Rocket team!

You are assuming that people on here don't know the players. Even if people don't know them personally, there are ones that do talk to and know people who know the team and the players. Sometimes people make assumptions or pull statements and opinions out of their ass, but there are times when there is a basis for those statements and those opinions. Sometimes things are rumour and innuendo, but it's not always the case as there are some knowledgeable people on here.

There are alot of things that happen with the team that do not get discussed on these boards or are not public knowledge simply because they are private matters and have nothing to do with on-ice stuff. But it doesn't mean they don't happen or that people don't know about them.

I'm not saying this to be critical, to start a pissing match or anything like that, but there are people that post on these boards that do know or hear things about players and people associated with the team.

I'm assuming nothing of the sort and my whole point is that there are many other factors involved in poor performance besides over inflated egos. I’m sure a lot of players do have big egos, which in many cases can be a good thing in terms of performance.

Yes I know, you already made that point in your previous post. I was just trying to explain something for when you said "You don't even know these kids,".

So what makes u think I don't know any of the players? Its not hard to tell who has ego problems Doyle barly makes a pass he always shoots so there for he is only playing for him self and latal look at his ego a player like that shouldn't be fighting when he can't fight to begin with for one. Latal is playing sloppy hockey and mostly everyone on here would agree. Looked at some stats in the month of Nov latal played 9 games assisted on 2 goals and no goals The month of Dec hey played 4 games with one assist. All's i am trying to say is he needs to step up

Happy Holidays everyone.....feel the love!!!!!
