Ok maybe this will be more clear:

What is your plan for the Canadian National Team? please include some actual points rather than continuing to ask that we "trust you" and "look at my past".

What are you going to do to make the NT better this season and for seasons to come?

Well to keep it fair I figured I should ask you a few questions as well:

With the changing of the guard about to occur at the Canadian SF position I am curious if you can explain what your criteria will be for players on the NT? EAK was and is a legend but needs to be replaced. Will you use a SG or PF type player to replace him or will you be looking for balance again?

It wasn't bbmail. I expressed a desire to help on forum. (238540.9). You didn't answer...
He has yet to make a comment on how he plans to have success in Canada, what his plans are, nothing.

You have right plan 2 seeason ago (237186.4)

Part of it:
1. Main Goal
Do better than beanerz! That really is the only goal. Continue on the successes that beanerz started and beat all the standards he set. His term was the greatest two seasons in Canada NT history and the next step is to beat that.

More Specificially..
I hope to earn an automatic bid for the worlds and get two wins in the second round(at least)
I hope to win the Americas Trophy.
I hope to improve on our already impressive world ranking!

What you did? Be honest.

I can really write the most beautiful speech election. Those are just words. I have the experience and results. It provides much more than words.

By the way...Try to understand that I don't have as good knowledge as you about Canada NT, Canadian player etc. I will need your (or somebody else from your community) help and suggestions if I win.

1. 1st place in Americas Championship
2. make nice surprise on World Championship

What are you going to do to make the NT better this season and for seasons to come?

1. I will share with my and Poland NT experiences.
2. I will open discuss about tactical issues.
3. I will speak with your community about training in Poland. I have been scaut of Poland NT and U-21 for a long time so I have quite big knowledge about training. Maybe you can make something better in this issue. We will see.
4. I will open thread with match previews and match summary.
5. I will organize a contest where you can win a supporter

Friend - your responses are generic and dance around how SPECIFICALLY you intend to run the Canadian NT - Aiming for 1st place is commendable - well, you know what that is my plan for my team too - but I have a SPECIFIC plan on how to achieve it - my question and the question that is being asked is do you have a SPECIFIC plan ?? The fact that you will open discussion and the rest I believe is already being done. How will you be different? Now I see you have a gimmick to buy our votes with a contest!! Well I am already a supporter - you need to do better than that to entice me. (Maybe you have photos of me - Yikes)

While I believe you are proficient - that is not being questioned, what I like to see is how - SPECIFICALLY - you would improve the NT. Don't dance, don't play the violin, don't use gimmicks - make your point with concise, straight-forward, direct answers.
Thank you

That is a very intelligent and well thought out comment. I think it is in our countries best interest to have our NT coach a Canadian who is in Canada. Mod-bballin for coach.

What do you exactly expect? I can't tell you what I will play and whose players I will use because I don't know skills...I believe I have skills and knowledge to maximum use the potential of the team. I proved it many times.

By the way...I searched the forum and I didn't find a post where Bbalin wrote how SPECIFICALLY he intend to achieve goal.

@Bbalin

How SPECIFICALLY do you intend to achieve your goal?

Right now there is a pretty good debate going on, on the offsite about next seasons roster and most of it seems to be focused on the SF position. We have many options, SG, PF, inside SF, outside SF and balanced SF.

Personally I want to take a PF(Hall) and a LI SF(Labbe, Bradshaw, Hudgins), but my main issue is that we play a lot of blank lineups in out bigger matchups and the GE plays Stronks at SF a lot. So im also considering taking Hall + 5 bigs and then 6 guards. I dont think we have any worries about EAK leaving though. As good of a SF as he was and being without a doubt Canadas best SF ever, he was never elite and wont be hard to replace.

- Teaming up with the U21 manager so that I can ensure that superstar+ players are trained and set up well for success at the NT level.
- Constant communication with managers of NT players and possible callups to ensure training and GS is kept in check.
- Exploring the best possible roster decisions each and every week depending on GS, training and callups.
- Maintaining Canadas NT Depth Chart so managers know where their players stack up.
- Creating an NT training guideline to help newer managers with trainees to better their chances at training Canadas next superstar.
- Beginning to encourage the training of JR and SB with the new salary and potential cuts that they have in order to strengthen Canadas ability to play more than one tactic.
- And then the basics, Scouting, Picking the best players for the roster, Gameplanning threads, Wise tactics and enthusiasm use. All that good stuff.
