Oh gawd, I forgot about that thread.

In Kenny we trust making a comeback?

mantha

And the big red tank keeps on rollin

Too bad the video probably took place in Canada

*sigh* Ken kicked the tires off Way to go Ken...

The Devs are beyond broken. Parise, Kovy, Clarkson, Broduer all dipped out on them. Weak prospect pool. Mess of a coaching and management situation. Screwed.

More hunky pics of Jeff carter plzzzzzz!!!!

If you consider me a troll strike me down now with comments. EKMAC, pls debate me if u disagree, don't resort to rich DG stature

HAHA sure dude. You "broke it down" Good luck with that. Night night now. debate me in the morning if your still butt hurt about ur backwards logic. sweet dreams

Ohhhhhh Ohhhhh so in your book there's no difference between playing in Europe and playing in NA? (Word to the wise their is a difference) Hence why almost no one has gone back to europe and then come back to Na like u suggsest with Hersley. Which is why you still can't name an example.

Thick about what? I've asked numerous times but you still haven't named one come back player.

So you're saying you can't cite any players who left the league and then came back to be successful in it? Only players who bloomed late? Is that what I'm hearing???

For the millionth time Ill ask you, what player has come to NA - left NA - and then come back and been successful? Idk why your whining about derailing this thread. It's right on topic. Your just made I'm asking a question you can't answer.

I asked you if you have an example of a Hersley. You havne't cited one. How does that make me a troll? Im not sure you understand what a troll is lol.

Oh so you can't name a player who has returned to Europe and then come back to be successful in NA? Not surprised.

St Louis started playing NHL hockey in his mid 20's, long before Hersley at 28. He also grew to become an all star hart winning player. Something Hersley will never be. AGAIN I'm asking you for a hersley example? Lemme guess, you don't have one?

So you think it doesn't matter that a player plays it out in NA til he earns a spot? Again, I'm asking you how many players have bailed on the NA game and then come back to successfully play the NA game? You still haven't named any. Hasek and St. Louis, are in no way comparable to Hersley for about a 1000 different reasons. The only thing that is comparable is that they all played hockey. You might as well compare Herley to Howe. EDIT: I love when someone who has no support for their argument resorts to call the other person a troll.

Niether Hasek nor St. Louis left for almost 10 years and then returned, Plenty of players enter late, that doesn't mean they have anything in common with Hersley. Soderberg never left NA and then came back, what are you talking about? The backpedaling begins

And what I was asking was: exactly how many times has that happened? You named Hasek and St. Louis which made no sense.

How in the world do you see similarities between this guy and St. Louis and Hasek? I didn't ask if he was going to be superstar. I asked if he was going to come back. PS Joakim Lindstrom is a terrible example and a fringe player at best

Storyline: Petry comes to Detroit. Plays same game as Quincey. Everyone quickly turns on him. 2-3 later they realize he's semi-decent. Petry = Quincey.

Examples?

He left NA when he was 19 as a 5th round pick. When a player leaves that quickly I think it's safe to say they're not coming back.

Can it track a bad pass by a goalie?
