As long as we have a team I don't really care which one

I just want to see these jerseys back in the NHL.....

That comment is an embarrassment to REAL DEVILS FANS!

There are more Nordiques fans and they don't even have a team...

Yeah I didn't even get into that. Complete garbage.
- Panthers88

Very weak and just because of the OG.

So you think this is Yzerman's fault? Here's the scenario the media has painted:

"I want still want to be traded. I'm mad you didn't select me for Olympics, and I don't care that I got to go and win a gold medal anyway. Oh and BTW you will trade me to the Rangers because it is near my house."

If you know this goes deeper why can't you say what the story is? Your an anonymous rumor blogger.

With the dirt and all.

This is easily the most ignorant entry by this blogger.

To take Steve Yzerman to task in this way is astounding. To allude to him being subversive or underhanded in his scouting is gross and to suggest that MSL is the protagonist in this story is unbelievable.

This hi-lites what most people know - this man has NO connection to or knowledge of the people involved, who they are or why the are doing the things they are doing. This evaluation is a monster miss and is a jaw dropping reminder of how quickly bullpoop is entered into the text box on his blogging software.

MSL is known to have made these requests before when emotionally affected by things that he doesn't agree with. Jilted lover.

Steve Yzerman is just as respected, just as classy, just as committed and loyal as you purport MSL to be. Perhaps more so and more justifiably.

Just wow.

If the Rangers offer them Callahan straight up I hope Yzerman makes him play out his contract. Sather has him by the balls now bcs of St. Louis. Hopefully Stevie Y holds his ground.

I agree. Only move him if the deal works for Tampa. He can go to the Rangers when his deal is up. Enough of these no trades.

I like how it's always the last guys team until the current guy is fired...than the new guy inherits the last guys team and not 2 guys ago team...lol, does that read right?

MAYBE Steve brought in the right systems and coaching staffs to develop the talent he inherited...maybe?

OK, since you want to play this game I will enlighten you. Of the rookies who have played for the Lightning this season the only ones NOT drafted by Yzerman are Killorn, Barberio, and Panik.

Kucherov, Palat, Sustr, JT Brown, Namestnikov, Connolly, Tyler Johnson, and Gudas were all drafted or signed by Yzerman.

And that's just the rookies

EDIT: To add our 3 best prospects (who aren't even playing in the NHL) are Drouin, Vasilevski, and Koekkoekk. Why do I add this, b/c they were all drafted by Yzerman

Trouble in TBay !!! Well.. Stamkos deal ends only 2 more full seasons after this one. He will only be 27.

Let's get a good headstart on the Stamkos to Toronto rumours now..

With the dirt and all.

Yes, means the player paid the price...

You misunderstand, that was directed at EK. I think he's way off base and I agree with you.

My bad, I read that as directed at us claiming that Yzerman didn't build the team.

My fault
