When a coach takes advice from a singer... we are hooped. Everyone remembers when he could not make a line for the life of him, and Micheal Bubble came as a guest colour commentator and told AV to stop mixing his lines up so much. That was fuckin obvious.
Last years trade deadline. Maybe we should have moved Ohlund for a more offensive D man. Like Jaybo. We had some money left. Why not take a chance? Everyone was saying trade deadline moves never work. I guess Bill Gurien never worked in Pitts this year? Oh yea, they won the cup. Sitting back, and being satisfied does not move you ahead.
Now, I dont care if we sign superstars or not. Yes it would be awesome, but that's not what I care about. Hossa, Havlat never would have worked here. But, we have issues. We have a terrible time leaving our own zone. A puck moving D is the most crucial asset for our team right now. JayBo would have been perfect. Salo is our closet thing, and hes as fragile as a sick 16 year old asian girl. I can go on...
MG's move on Sundin was good though. It was way to much money, and never worked the way it was suppose to. BUT, he tried. Which is perfect. Hopefully we can do something this year. |
