  1. I was and am concerned that Garrison might be a one hit wonder, but it's still very early and he'll probably need a bit more time to get really comfortable. If we dont see any flashes of what made him successful last year soon, then maybe we can start worrying. What was most concerning to me about his career season last year was how few assists he had. Sure he had 16 goals but maybe (not very likely) he was just getting lucky, hammering the puck, hoping for the best, and it worked 16 times. I hope very much that I'm wrong though.
  2. What I've been wondering is, why did the league and the NHLPA only just started trying to make a deal a couple of months ago? Couldn't they have started trying to work something out a year ago so there would be less likelihood of a lockout?
  3. I've been a fan of this team for 20+ years and I did see Courtnall play quite a bit. I thought it was a fair comparison between the two players. They both scored clutch goals, were both good playoff performers, both scored in bunches quite often, etc. I only said that Burrows was better because I believed he had some better seasons as a Canuck. On closer inspection though, Courtnall does have mostly higher point totals, to be fair though he did play in an era when scoring was higher.
  4. Burrows is the Geoff Courtnall of today only better.
