Too true... For those interested, Downey has been offered a two-way deal. Same as McCarty. Link Apparantly we are going to carry 8 dmen, so there are only 13 forward spots. To me thats just retarded. Holland says in that interview he cant have all the "key ingredients"...well maybe if you got rid of some uneeded ingredients (like a dman) then you could have everything.

So can we sign Jesus?

Could he not be 69 just for a laugh?

Judging by this forum, thats not many fans.

Im listening

I think he is refering to next season, when we may be Mac, Downey and Drakeless.

Someone hacked your account? All those saying we should have Mac as an enforcer need to realise his enforcing days are over. Downey is a great enforcer who suits this team with his disicpline. With our stars, yes an enforcer is needed. Some of the anti-enforcer posts on here are beyond idiotic and not worth responding to.

Id rather have Downey re-signed...then with an enforcer we have all the basics done.

You suck.

4 mil for Flip Dmac and Downey? Bad bad bad bad bad...

Fixed it for you

Cba (aka cant be arsed) often makes life difficult.

Actually Downey started fights with Fedoruk, Shelley, Wisniewski and O'Donnell for no apparant reason...

He has legs...good enough for the Panthers.

Id love to say Id keep watching...but I just wouldnt. Fighting is what got me interested in hockey in the first place. Alot of wings games are great to watch without fights, thats not the problem. The problem is once they ban fighting, then the league will be filled with cheapshots until they make a rule against big hits. Eventually we have european style hockey. THEN I stop watching. It would be a slippery slope toward non-physical hockey. Id probably just watch a different league, that actually plays ice hockey, not figure skating with sticks. Anyways, fighting will never be fully banned. Too many of current hockey fans love the fights (not that you could tell reading this forum), and there would be huge agro. As seen over the last few years, fighting is on the increase so Im not worried. PS, Hail Downey.

If the forum is that bad then you can leave and we wont miss ya!

You cant argue with the numbers he put up the 2nd half of season when he was healthy...yet some people on here try. Ah well, wouldnt LGW without the crazy people with their senseless arguments. If we could sign him for under 2m Id be perfectly happy to have him as a replacement for Drake.

The bitching in this board never ceases to amuse me

Hail Downey.

Zack Stortini everyone!

For the last god damn time. McCarty = Fighter Downey = Enforcer

Yeah. What you gonna do about it?

Theres more to ice hockey than just being able to score goals my good friend. Osgood is also useless at anything other than goaltending. But guess what, thats his role. Just like Downey's role is to enforce, rough up the opponents and he also motivates in the locker room.

Insight? On this board? When did this happen?
