I have legalized robbery, called it belief
I have a-run with the money, I have hid like a thief
Re-written history with my armies and my crooks
Invented memories, I did burn all the books
--Dire Straits "The Man's Too Strong"
I think it's fair to say those players evolved in response and grew their games to varying extents though. or do you disagree?
I do not see Mitch or Auston doing that. what I do I see, over a pretty good sample size now, is the same level of play in the same situations with the same results...
Veteran leadership isn't a substitute or a transplant, it's supposed to be an augmentation to help your important players develop and grow into champions.
but what if those player refuse to do that, or can't do that?
then yeah, it's absolutely meaningless fairy dust.
best part of that one is they didn't even throw in the usual perfunctory "why we're raising the charges" BS you usually see in these emails.
nope, it's simply we're charging you 25% more because we feel like it Mark, so lick our bags, sincerely SportsNet. Nice.
sounds good, but with what? I assume the Blues would be moving a player like this to save money. the Leafs are a bit short on quality low cost assets at the moment
