  1. Yeah exactly. We trade Hansen and we're in the clear right?
  2. Every opinion of yours have been proven incorrect, so I'll take your proclamation as further confirmation.
  3. Sorry for not making the sarcasm more obvious. I knew that Granlund was gonna be good and I was furious that so many idiots thought they could make grand pronouncements on how he was one 22 year old that would never improve.
  4. What you see is what you get with Granlund. Jim trades elite potential for average certainty, right? It sure was amazing watching so many people close the book on this guy.
  5. I thought that a lack of intensity was the main concern. He was definitely good on defensive zone draws, and I don't need him to score a tonne, but he's had like 40-odd games to make an impression on the forecheck or something. I'm on the fence about this guy, but I definitely think that the scratching is warranted.
  6. He got a good long look and did sweet eff all. That kind of thinking is what cost us Richardson. I want Gaunce to be good, but he's actually had a tonne of opportunity.
  7. This board would have called Pat Kane a bust in his first few seasons.
  8. You're talking about data validation. It's the basic requirement of being remotely sciencific. This is why NHL teams are able to do solid analysis while the public gets a muddy picture at best.
  9. Yes, I too heard Desjardins put Burrows in the same category as Sutter in terms of being established and not having to worry about their spot. Hopefully this means that Burrows is saving it up. It sure looks like it.
  10. Too bad the rules prevent that.
  11. Probably anyone from the American league, and half the guys from Europe. To be fair, he's probably a better bet than most ECHLers though.
  12. Actually, that was the shadow of Naslund. If he'd have gotten three more years we'd all hate him. A guy with his level of competitiveness would have kept us far from the final.
  13. I rarely identify players as "divers", but Wingels really is a slippery bastard who knows who to get a call. Not that I'm feeling the moral outrage that diving brings out of so many people.
