These phrases have cropped up frequently in our discussions - which one is your fave? I am partial to "______ is/are only one way to improve your team."

I voted for blank is only one way to improve your team...

Howson's lived up to that motto since the draft last year....

Traded for Rome, Wilson, Sigalet, Ruth, Torres, Tyutin, Backman, Umberger, Rycroft, Discarrmo,

Drafted: Voracek, Weber, Legein, Filatov, Goloubef.

Signed: Huselius, Commodore, Novotny, Hejda.

Foote is a piece of Crap and 1st line center are my two and three though.

#1 Center. I believe it's the one that was used the most often and the most glaring hole in what's been accomplished so far.

If anyone knows where I can hear the Adam Foote/crap quote, please let me know. I'm dying to hear it.

Rimer said it on his radio show, I think it can probably be heard on 1460's archives. Not sure what day it was, though.

I can't possibly explain how much I abhor the "t**gh t* pl** aga**st" - I can't even type it. It's like I'm cursing and the filter takes it out.

Blank "only way to improve your team" became my fave when someone posted all the fill-ins to the blank in a thread the other day. Thank you to whomever that was.

And great thread, DJ.

For this board, I vote for "why is everyone" and "negativity" and "as a season ticket holder..."

For the Jackets, I vote for... "puck moving defenseman."

A whole different thread/poll that would only bring out the best in people.

Tough to play against is tired. The one about Foote is priceless.

I debated between "aaaaaaaahhhhhhhh .... spalt!" and "negative nellies have feelings too" but ultimately opt for "bold moves."

For the Jackets I vote for "a defenseman who can set up a play behind our goalie, skate, transition thru the neutral zone with crisp passing, transition back to defense when the pass is turned over, QB our PP scoring assists and goals often, shutdown guys like Malkin, Crosby and Ovechkin on the PK and last but not least score 75% of the time in those penalty shots".

Bobby Orr, are you you listening?

Well it's raining here, but I'm doing just fine, sad to lose Z, but will be happy with Vermette and/or Boyle.
