I'm not saying anyone expected Rolston was a good signing, but the guy was on pace for 20 goals and 50 points the season before. As I said, I don't think anyone thought he was going to put up 9 points in 49 games. Especially when you consider he then went on to put up 15 points in 21 games with Boston.

I think most were expecting 15-20 goals on Tavares wing. There's no question it was a cap signing for a team playing it cheap, but I don't think for a minute Snow thought he was going to pay that type of money for 4 goals in 49 games. I'm not sure how anyone could say they thought he would be quite as abysmal as he was once here.

Sorry, this just made me literally laugh.

You can just say all you want everyone knew he was a washed up POS besides me(which I thought maybe we'd have a fighting chance on a shot from the point), you, and Keaner

Don't look at Reasoners stats, we may have to pull out the defibulator!

Like, looked good in a Boston jersey or something?

well...

4-5-9 in 49 games for us
3-12-15 in 21 for them

that's not bad for a 39 y/o playing limited mins.

I am not saying the guy wasn't at the tail end of his career, But numbers don't lie... he seemed a little more stoked to be playing there, then here.

We should start our own hockey site. If we wrote a blog on the upside of Rolston going to the Island I wonder how that would've gone over?

I hate to admit this too but I wasn't pissed about Reasoner coming here either

Yeah I read that. That site is just a little more credible than Ek overall. There are some credible spots on it, you just have to dissect. This little tidbit I don't believe. That's there just because common sense would tell you that's what any team would do, they forgot who they were dealing with.

This person lost ALL credibility when they wrote this in the story.

" The former first-overall draft pick in 2000 is believed to have a clean bill of health and should be become an unrestricted free agent July 5, he will attract some interest from teams in need of goaltending depth."

SERIOUSLY???

"Rolston is an annual 20 goal scorer who will undoubtedly be good for 30+ on a line with Tavares and the isles lethal powerplay. Marty Reasoner will add an additional boost with his nose for the net and lightning like speed"

I think that was the signing you got extremely excited about, that you told me you had to buy a new mattress..

I thought it was a decent signing as well.
- ses111

I wasn't real excited but like most the first thing I did was look at his stats and thought "eh, 15-20 goal guy good on faceoffs...win win!"

Not sure what happened to that guy but by the time we got this guy he was bending over the other way...
