It's just so much more enjoyable to watch excellent skating, passing and shooting than it is to watch to find out who can hit whom hard enough to put them in the hospital. You know, the kind of play played by what Scottie Bowman called "skill players". Hatcher ain't one of those. But, when the playoffs start, you need more of those than skill players usually. bcnu, Mikem The soul and substance of what customarily ranks as patriotism is moral cowardice and always has been...We have thrown away the most valuable asset we had-- the individual's right to oppose both flag and country when he (just he, by himself) believed them to be in the wrong. We have thrown it away; and with it all that was really respectable about that grotesque and laughable word, Patriotism. - Mark Twain, "Monarchical and Republican Patriotism"
Post #98,327 by lister 4/23/03 3:56:49 PM Reply	I like the combination of the two It is though the trickiest to pull off. You need your skilled players, you need your grinders and you need your combination of the two, players like Shanahan or Nolan for instance. The Leafs actually have that good combination I think. They need a proper number one and two defencemen and to shut their whinny yaps about the ridiculous penalties they take. The team has had flashes of brilliance over the past few years. It's a shame they have never really managed to keep that up. Nasty, grind it out defensive hockey and nancy-boy all-skill hockey is boring. Good examples are watching Minnesota play Jersey and the All-Star game. Bleah! lister

Here's typical: Dad: "Who has the best Russian hockey team?" Russian Friend: "Magnitogorsk Metallurg." Dad: "Nyet." Russian Friend: "Moscow Dinamo?" Dad: "Nyet." Russian Friend: "Okay, smart guy, who?" Dad: "Detroit Red Wings." bcnu, Mikem The soul and substance of what customarily ranks as patriotism is moral cowardice and always has been...We have thrown away the most valuable asset we had-- the individual's right to oppose both flag and country when he (just he, by himself) believed them to be in the wrong.
