When it is my team he wants to come to and he is a 30+ goal scorer for 4 straight seasons... i love it.

I wonder how un wanted he's gonna feel the first time Carchidi and seravalli write a bad story about him and the fans in WFC boo him b/c he missed a shot in the shootout.

I would think Anaheim is looking for players they would have under control for at least a couple of years, that is why Roy would make no sense to me.

Just like he traded JvR straight up for Schenn. You just never know what he is going to do.

really? a 22 yr old that can control the puck along the boards, a playmaker, can carry a puck through the zones, and play some defense. only weakness is that he is not a finisher. not sure where he is overrated?

I'll take a stab at this:

You like him on the team = Overrated in the eyes of those that don't

Just like...

"We can get someone just as good as Meszy for cheaper."

"Who?"

"Uh..."

A little turover prone too IMO. But unless we are drafting Crosby, I dont expect perfection from these kids and I am all for keeping them.

Justin Williams
Patrick Sharp
Even Upshall. I always hate seeing the young guys go.

I like all three of those players. Upshall was one of my favorites and we basically gave him away for Carcillo. That deal still pisses me off.

I like Ryan and have been defending trading for him but that is an overpayment. I wouldnt make that deal either.

I like Bourdon. I think he has a chance to be an NHL regular. I like him better then Gustafsson actually.
- MJL



Me too. I'd like to see manning play more. Lauridsen hopefully is ready for a few games as well although he seems further away from the NHL right now.

Good God no. Mezzy is our best D man outside Kimmo. I truely don't understand why people think trading him will help this team in get any better. And Read's cap hit is gold. Id love to add Ryan but that's wayyyyy too much.
