ReplyDeletejust bought my tickets and they told me they have over 3200 tickets sold already for tonight. looks like another poster that knows nothing about hockey.

yes, down the stretch. They put themselves into that position a long time before that. The first few games of the season looked good then down from there. I actually think that their poor record is not an accurate reflection of the performance. When you take into account all the single points we collected you can see that the point total is inflated. It's sad to think back at how all were proclaiming how much better we were doing than the previous season at X point in time. It's never good to look at things that way. A guy may pick up a 2 in a bar. The next night he picks up a 4. Saying that he did slightly better than the night before does not turn the 4 into a 10. I just hope next year we do not accept slightly better performance and say at least we have more points than last year. The previous year is in the past. It does not win games this year. Comparing this year to last year blinds us to glaring problems. I just hope Rich's lease on his rental expires soon so he can go back to his hometown. He never made himself part of the community or tried to reach out to fans. That's what junior hockey is all about. Just like you don't treat NHLers and WHLers the same, you have to treat your job a different way when you are in a small WHL city. I saw all the players out there in the community all the time but Rich was never putting himself out there. He may have had too much on his plate but he did nothing to win the fans over. He could not even face the fans and attend the kids skate. No wonder why the players did not buy into his system when he appears to be a “do as I say” kind of coach/gm. I could see he clearly was not a part of the team/community when he did not shave his head last year. His choice for sure, but I think it shows a lot. Actions speak louder than words and with Rich we have not got much of either. Here’s hoping for a festivus miracle over the next 2 games.
ReplyDeletego cheer loud for preston. hes been super for this team. u know lots about hockey 2:56. have lots of fun.
ReplyDeleteI may not know much about hockey but I do I know about community relations and PR. Why does the owner of Sobeys get on the roof in the cold every year? He gets it that's why. Rich does not. The criticism of Preston was completely based on the lack of things he did outside of the sportsplex walls. Please explain how he has been super for this team. Not trying to argue, I just do not see this team being in a better place on the ice, in the community and at the bank than it was the day before he was hired. He has had a 2 year window to make this team better and I do not see that happening.
ReplyDeletei think a new jersey would be better in victoria...sell the canes
ReplyDeletenanannanannaa heyyheyyyyyyy ohhhhhhh..the fat lady sang lets wait and see what lousy excuse the canes will say as to why rich does not resign...sure theres a million and some in reserves and so they lose 300,000 this yr..rich can have 2 more yrs before the team is broke and they will be in the bottom I will take any ones bet hit men are better next yr than the canes...
