I love how people say Ruff ruins players when they have their career years under him. Drury might have had a wring but he wasn't the star with Colorado he was with the Sabres and Ruff. Neither Briere or Drury would have gotten 7 million $ a year contract offers before they were coached by Ruff, but they sure as Hell did after.
I forgot to mention Afinagenov having his career year under Ruff, now out of the league. - GilPerreault

Briere has been just as good since he left. Drury was never the same and it took Campbell a while to find his way after he left.

Isn't he supposed to be a decent prospect though? I know he was on the US WJC team when they were held here in Buffalo. He dissed the city, so personally I'd love to see him just fall flat on his face, but I thought he was up pretty high on their depth chart as far as prospects go. - HonkFortheGoose
I don't think so but I might be wrong, he's a douche bag (sorry)

Dudley was the GM of the thrashers before the relocated. - Cheeseballin
For about a year and 2 months. He took over for Waddell and then the next year they moved to Winnipeg and he got the ax. He was the guy that brought in Byfuglien and Ladd.
