yeah the talent was definitely there... at least to score 15 goals and be an effective 2-way player. if that guy had say 60-70% of the drive Gallagher does he'd be there.

You just know he's not in the gym getting ready right now

Just like Stinger said, DSP will never put in the effort to play up to his talent.
- Fredo

Just like Fredo said, Stinger's right, DSP will never show consistent effort and production, only enough to stick around.

It depends...he might be in the gym getting ready...to do some blow!

honestly i don't think that's true. has had trouble staying healthy but he's putting up solid numbers in Edmonton.

I'm sure Therrien would use him in the same way.

The guy is an idiot.

In his first call up with Minnesota he showed up after 2 games with a Ferrari, the team had to bail him out when he was sent back down to Houston and could not afford the payments anymore. True story.

So they'd rather have a guy that's giving it his all but sucks too much to stay in the NHL than a guy not giving it is all but that can actually play.

Great.

I dunno Fred, even on an entry level salary, a fella should be able to afford the payments on a Ferrari.
