guillaume latendresse, 50 point player 20 goal guy when healthy and should cost 1.5 million a season...

Interesting names, Exelby isnt even AHL worthy, few names id consider tho

I don't want Tootoo anywhere near this team.
Huselius and Semin are KHL players.

The only guy in that group I'd consider would be Barker.

So Van wouldnt be interested in Holmstrom?

Cam Barker was probably the worst player in the NHL last season, but on a list with AE, he doesn't look nearly as bad.

I'd stay as far away as possible, tho.

I think you see Esposito like Dan Cleary because you have not followed his career.

Esposito had above average offensive skills but what allowed him to make Team Canada and ultimately get drafted in the first round was that he had blazing speed. The kid hustled and simply beat men to the puck.

His career however was cut short because of re-occurring knee injuries. He lost his speed and so his average offensive skills were exposed.

He'll never be an NHLer but might be able to rebound in the AHL.

I like Latendresse as a gamble, as well as Brule. I agree with you on Fehr, think he could work out. Tootoo I would put on the 4th line, he will hit everything. He will cost us some dumb penalties, but I would take them if he is hitting someone every shift.
Cam Barker I would stay well away from, have heard through multiple people he has some issues off of the ice.
Brad Boyes is another guy I would take a flyer on, could look good on 2/3 line and power play unit.

When did Cam Barker win a Stanley Cup?

Happy Birthday Ian, hope you get lots of cake and presents.

he played NHL11 everyday last year. Won the cup 3 times

Agree about Latandresse, Seems like a decent guy that could flourish pn such an offensive team, Also like Barker, new start could mean good things for Cam.

Happy Birthday Ian, hope you get lots of cake and presents.

The real question is which team did he play as.

Probably Toronto?

How about we give rob schremp a shot? Plays for modo, loads of potential. At one point, corey perry was in his shadow. We send jensen, they let us have schremp

On February 12, 2010, Barker was traded to the Minnesota Wild for defenceman Kim Johnsson and defensive prospect Nick Leddy.

No, I just checked, he was on their roster and played when they won the Cup and his name is on it. I believe to get a ring and your name on the Cup you have to play at least 1 game in the Final.

EDIT: I'm wrong, he was traded before the playoffs that year.
