Please don't forget the NiƱo trade. It's worse than the Vanek one.

Not to mention Boychuk will walk or get massively overpaid

Nino demanded a trade. That's moving out a problem. Now if you want to talk about how his development was handled, that I have an issue with. Any time you move out a problem it's difficult to get fair value and at the time he was moved he had 2 nhl goals in around 80 games. No one is giving you good value at that point.

I don't really know what happened but as an outsider it's always shocking to hear an organization trade away a top prospect for very little. Washington with forsberg is still a shocker.

Oh I'm not saying I liked that situation. They never should have given Nino that full year buried on the fourth line. That was beyond stupid. He was mishandled all the way along and I wish they hadn't done that, but as soon as he asked for a trade and made it public he was worth a lot less in a trade. Can't say I'm unhappy with Clutterbuck, he's a good pker and he's part of a useful fourth line, but it was the way they mishandled Nino that still bothers me.

*edit- he also draws a fair amount of penalties

I didn't like the ending either stash. Al should've killed Hearst when he had the chance. The producers wimped out.

Yeah, I might. On hold with TWC right now.

What's the point of doing the "call back" option in lieu of staying on hold if the system just calls you back and then puts you on hold anyway?

I hate Time Warner Cable so much.
