Agree. Guy wears the strap on foot protectors over his skates, nothing to cover his face. He was just playing the odds, and lost big-time.

I have a couple big bets on Pens winning the cup, but you know what, I'm now rooting for the Islanders, they're just fun to watch, its only money. I should dig out my Turgeon Islanders jersey from the closet if there is a game 7

Grabner plays with ton of heart and doesn't play like typical European
I hate this trade.

yea seeing that trade again makes me mad
ballard unfortunately didn't pan out under AV's system.....
Grabner would've provided some of that much needed 2nd line scoring...though I'm not sure if AV would've given him the chance to play though.

Oh hearing people talk about Grabner(not just here) makes me sick
He not a bad player, but when given so many chances to make this team, he never did look like he wanted it.

He showed up to camp out of shape too many times, and then his last straw was with the panthers, which imo, he would have made the team if he tried.

Glad he found something in Long Island

Higgins - Kesler - Grabner?

Gillis overpaid in the bidding war for Ballard.

It wasn't 100% certain that Hamhuis would sign with Vancouver, so Gillis took a chance and went for Ballard...and well...we know what happened lol

Ballard definitely would've been in the top 4 had Hamhuis not signed with Vancouver...so i guess Ballard can blame Hamhuis and not AV?

Gillis always overpays then tries to dump salary for his mistake.

Series should've been 2-2 instead of 4-0. Refs were absolutely the deciding factor that tipped the game over for SJ in game 4. Granted, for the most part, SJ outplayed us this series, but we deserved a better result. I don't look at it as 4-0.

Is it the Canucks to blame or the GM who hasn't done shit ever since the stanley cup finals. He's taking too much credit for it. To know if he is a good GM, he needs to build his own core. Not Burke's Sedin sedin burrows kesler (nonis) Luongo
