Rumors: 2024-25 Season

[Krustchev]

Hughes wasn't interested. Gorton was probably the one with interest

You realize Gorton is Hughes boss?

 

[WeHaveMoreCupsThanYou]

Yes but I doubt that Gorton "ordered" Hughes to get Trouba.

 

[lecoqsportif]

It’s all nonsense. Trouba would have blocked any trade to Canada and everyone knew it.

 

[Krustchev]

Yes but I doubt that Gorton "ordered" Hughes to get Trouba.

Not suggesting he did.

 

[GrandWazoo]

Wait… why are we discussing Trouba again??

 

[worm]

If the Canadiens would have been interested then Hughes needs a lobotomy. I call bullshit.

Fire him now

What I've seen over the years is that a good chunk of CanadiensFans are much more similar to BruinsFans than they'd ever like to admit.

Having good players is nice, but having good face punchers is more important.

Fighting and dirty hits is all Trouba's good for now in 2024.

He is kinda bad at fighting but agree

no one dislikes fights

 

[Habsy]

I actually think they're dumb unless performed by fighters. I don't want my skill guys breaking a hand on a helmet.

 

[GGpX]

I wouldn't be sad at all if fighting was outright removed from hockey.

 

[Sal_Butera]

Should go all out sprockets while we’re at it

 

[GrandWazoo]

I doubt it will happen in my lifetime. And the league would need to do a lot better as suspending people.

I’m the same way can live without it. I get my fighting fix watching ufc. Although it has become a sadly run joke at this point.

With all the CTE evidence pilling up, the fighting ban will probably come sooner than later. And people will look back at this era and think we were nuts.

you will never ban fighting, all you can do is give a game misconduct for all fights, which might be worse, just think you are a playing a great player, just start pounding him, how many men will just stand there and take it

I know this much, no one runs to the concession during a fight

 

[WeHaveMoreCupsThanYou]

For fighting to disappear completely would first require the refs to do a better job than they do now.

And we know that's not happening.
