are you kidding?? google Gary Leeman & Iafrate read what comes up

also look into Jeff Carter & Scott Harntell same thing , Philly lost 11 of 14 almost missed the playoffs

There is no banging of each others wives on this team, so cut it out. There is a bit of a weed smoking issue though.

as he should, look at detroit, what do they do with their players, they have made the playoffs what...23 years in a row now.

god forbid we tried to follow suit.

draft, build, teach, improve.

Considering he's really only been on the team for 2 full seasons...I don't fault him for the other 8 seasons.
- mykokes

it's just a debate, that's what these boards are for. I see a need for 2 way play, you see a need for offense. It really just helps pass the time.
- clark_griswold



No I never said that.


Agreed.... I have no issue debating this with you. It's all good fun.

And there is ZERO chance of Kadri improving at 23??? Little did, but KAdri wont??


I guess this is what you are missing. We have a guy that is skilled and putting up better numbers at the same age, lets let him see if he can continue to get better instead of trading for the guy you want him to be that is 3 years older.

I see no improvement in the team with that trade and it could very well come back to bite us.

it's not about not improving, it's the type of player. Spezza never had a defensive aspect to his game, it doesn't come with age. Nor will kadri. Little was always a 2 way centre is what i'm getting at. it's not all about offense - that's why this team sucks.

iafrate was nailing leemans' wife, or the other way around? i can't remember.
- clark_griswold

i think they were both nailing each others' wives which is amazing since they were both incredibly ugly.

what a year for the wings, basically made it with an AHL team.

should heat up heading into playoffs with Z coming back and Erikson.

that should help with the third period meltdowns you guys have had this year.

great year for development though, you guys kept your future stars in the AHL for long enough that when they came up to fill in they were prepared.

i still think brunner or filpula should have been kept, just 1 of them.

but they did want some big bucks so F em.

The firing of Mike Gillis will automatically ramp up some of that talk about Jay Feaster to Vancouver

Oh God, I hope this happens!!!

That would explain the laziness, lack of drive, confusion all over the ice and paranoia going into the corners!

i agree. My point isn't so much kadri sucks i have given him praise. It's more so when people are freaking out at the mention of moving him.

anyone should be moveable on a team that has made the playoffs once in 10 years

- clark_griswold



Agreed. I dind't say he SHOULDN"T be moved. I said he doesn't HAVE to be moved. Also said that I don't think that value comes back.



EDIT: If the rumors are true and he's moved this summer it should give us cause to relive this debate.

Since we're on the topic and you're a habs fan....for years it was rumoured that Patrick Roy got caught in photos with a stripper after winning the 92/93 cup......leading up to the infamous 9 goal game....his wife to get roy back slept with a Mtl. team mate. And on the day of the 9 goal game roy and said team mate got into a physical altercation which lead to Tremblay leaving roy in for the 9 goals. I just last week heard who the fight was with.....did Damphouse (frank) Roy's wife?

it's not about not improving, it's the type of player. Spezza never had a defensive aspect to his game, it doesn't come with age. Nor will kadri. Little was always a 2 way centre is what i'm getting at. it's not all about offense - that's why this team sucks.

Steve Yzerman disagrees. So do a host of other players.

I've never heard anything like that.

Besides, Damphousse and Roy are actually good friends....

The 9 goal thing? It was just Tremblay being a (frank)ing idiot.
