Hank Dats 'N Homer 81 Report post Posted July 10, 2008 Man thank god Gaborik is an UFA after this season. That city just does not know how to build a team, they let two great players like Rolston and Demitra go who helped hold that team together, and now a great player like Gaborik, young and talented, is now screwed because hes looking around and now has noone around him. Hope he ends up with a cup contender next year. The wild dont deserve him. The same can be said for Buffalo and Ryan miller.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted July 11, 2008 Haven't ever liked this guy since he scored the overtime winner for St. Louis back in 1999 at my first Red Wings game at the former Kiel Center.
