But the 'noose' is tightening around coach's neck in Philly...will Flyer fans and media accept another missed playoff season???? We get it, John W...if Hakstol took this team to the Stanley Cup Finals and lost game 7 in a 16-OT thriller, you'd still think of him as a failure. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your comment is so hypothetical...he's never won the big one Your comment is such small thinking. When I was a kid, I thought winning the game I was playing was the immediate goal and winning the season the ultimate goal. But I've aged a lot and matured a little and have changed my definition of what the "big one" is. A banner is a lot of fun and provides a convenient and identifiable goal and a great excuse to engage in trash talk, but it is NOT the "big one" in these kids' lives. How they fight for it and what they learn from that fight, win or lose, is much bigger. Hak helped a lot of kids "win" that one. And yeah, I deserve some "FCS, give us a break, burd" crap for that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only Hakstol had won the Moose Jaw Mite B Jamboree, he'd be considered a "champion." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John W. Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 You're about correct on age.....but live in a 4 level house...not my mom's...been quite financially and professionally successful, thank you... I have Fighting Hawk season FB tickets and attend most MBB Fighting Hawk games...some WBB as well.... IMO there are two entities....whose fans are arrogant and insufferable..........Bizzon FB fans...and Fighting Sue hockey fans....there is such a thing as 'winning with class'...and neither demonstrate that...... Did drop Sue hockey season tickets after 4 years.....because of previous sentence....Thanks for your concern re: my life....'get one of your own'!!!!!!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
