without Mats Sundin, the Sedins would not have developed into Art Ross players, ask them yourself.

You do realize we had

Sedin-Sedin-Burrows

Kesler-Sundin-Demitra

back then. That was one of the best top 6 in the league.

Idiot

you do realize that the Sedins were putting up 80+ points before they played with Sundin right?

but yes clearly playing half a season with Sundin made them win their Art Ross trophies

Hard to blow it up with all the retirement and NTC contracts

I bet if you explain the situation some of those guys will waive their no trade clause.

" We're gonna start over, give me a list of teams you'd like to go to, or you can sit here and suffer through a rebuild.

And if Sundin had taken Gillis up on the idiotic contract he offered him, we would not have been able to afford the Sedins. Gillis is the idiot.

Ok so why is henrick sedin still captain? Whose with me he has to be replaced in the offseason by anyone else who shows grit and leadership. Maybe Bieksa, Kessler, Daniel or Hamhuis would be better. No reason not too try it

Daniel

lawl are u drunk?

Was at the game. The first period was good besides Henrik going full potato and giving up that shorthanded goal. After the first it was BRUTAL, we had literally 3 shots in the second. The fans werent very good either, only chant all night was fire Gillis at the end.

Who are we going to hire if we fire Gillis? Jay Feaster?

Don't forget, Gillis assembled a team that made it to the cup finals. For people who say he didn't he did. He was able to sign everyone to less than market value contracts.

He signed Mats Sundin and that literally was boss.

And for people who think he made bad trades and signings?

1) Richardson. Kassian-Richardson-Booth arguably a Stanley Cup contending third line. He brought in all 3 players

2) Ballard. Although in hindsight, it was a bad trade, at the time of the trade, everyone was ecstatic. We all thought he was a legit top 4 defensemen. I can pull up the thread and show all the positive reactions. No one would have thought he would drastically decline and fail to play well. In addition, Grabner would not have made our team if he had stayed. We had too many skilled players and we wanted to become more physical, hence the signing of raffi torres.

3) In addition, he made stellar draft picks and signings that are contributing now. Jensen, Tanev, Corrado. Not to mention Grenier, Lain, Gaunce, Horvat who have big chances of making it next year

Anyone who wants Gillis fires knows nothing about hockey.

He gets less than market value contracts because he doles out NTC's like Halloween candy. Now the team is handcuffed with old farts who can refuse to move.

Signing Sundin was boss? is "Boss" a foreign word for stupid? 2 years@ 10 million a season. He's lucky Sundin only took him up on 1/4 of that because otherwise he'd never of had the cap space to bring on Ehrhoff. It was not "boss" it was reckless and foolish.

I've mentioned it many times before.

GM Candidates: Julien BriseBois, Pat Verbeek, Jason Botterill, Norm MacIver, Rob Blake

Coaching Candidates: (All current assistants)

Scott Niedermayer, Larry Robinson (Only if he wants the head coaching gig again), Steve Thomas, Todd Reirden, Calle Johansson, and yes possibly Marc Crawford, possibly Jamie Kompon. Beg Linden to be an assistant so he can work on special teams.

we'd probably have a better top 6 and a better chance of winning a cup that year then. Gillis would have probably shipped off Bernier+Samuelsson+Raymond for space

Sedin-Sedin-Burrows

Kesler-Sundin-Demitra

Grabner-Wellwood-Hansen

Hordichuck-Johnson-Glass

So you trust that Gillis would have solved a cap issue with a good trade? If the last 2 seasons are any indication, Gillis would have created an even bigger mess with yet another idiotic move.
