I really want to hit the Juck Fooking Pott here. Seriously. It will suck if we lose out to the Flames or anyone on this one. We have a spot for him actually too. Right now we have 10 forwards signed, add Tatar and AA, then take away Franzen, thats 11, so realistically we have 3 positions that need filling. You could bring up Svech, keep Foo and if they bring back Vanek that's 14 positions. IMO that could be a pretty competitive lineup. It would be hard to determine who the 2 scratches would be game by game....and that's a good thing. I'd call it a Foo'bulous situation.

Is today the day We Get played a Foo again, or is this the day We don't get Foo'd again and actually win?

I would be amazed if Holland traded ANY of his "loyal" players.

Yea, but it looks like he's making moved to try to better his team. Meanwhile, Ken Holland....

Dallas looking mighty good. Jim Nill, now there's some brains.

What does excepting mean Helene?

Dunno...all the replies are making fun of him, but ya never know. He may know someone.

Uh oh...

No, I would've been torn...and I was, but I would've been extremely happy with Vilardi. Leave it to Holland to disappoint everyone. Hopefully it'll be a new GM choosing that day.

...and he'll probably pick Calgary then.

...do you honestly think Holland will go after anyone? IMO if he wants back in the playoffs he should. But we have to shed some cap.

Every article I read says the same thing basically. I know here at LGW we like to berate Holland, but I've never read so many negative reviews... I am so disappointed. Nothing we can do, even firing him won't change what happened, so I guess we cross our fingers for a diamond to come out...dammit.

We do have a lot going for us, despite my negativity ( ) we are young, have young stars in the making, a new building, an owner with bottomless pockets plus we have to fill 4 forward positions from somewhere. There's a chance we win this sweepstakes here.

Absolutely! Hopefully it's one of those drafts that 8 other teams look back on and say, damn, shouldve take Rasmussen.

When we look back at past drafts and say, man if we only knew...well this is going to be one of those drafts, but the difference is, we all knew Tippett or Vilardi wouldve been the correct choice. The no brainer.

We'll, one thing is sure, they went for big kids. Still sour at the #9, but cant say I know too much about the rest, so we'll just hope we get 3 or 4 winners. I won't hold my breath on him making any deals this summer to better the team. If he does, he'll overpay.

Lol! Calder Trophy in his rookie year. Rocket Richard for most goals. Don't think those guys you listed will be winning rookie of the Year. Come back to reality.

It'll just put a knife in my side everytime Tippett scores a goal and wins awards. I'm gonna hate it that he's not ours...

I have no choice but the give Ras-ma-taz his chance. I hope he becomes a superstar. I'm just so over Holland...

Just not a good pick at #9. That's most of the disappointment.

We can only dream and hope...But this has jakub kindl written all over it...

It was a blown pick no matter what. Tippett will be a Rocket Richard winner and raspberryputin will score 12 goals, 11 on the pp with 1 open net.

Ok, I'd splash him, then turn around and splash him again. And if i made him coffee, I'd use toilet water...
