NO SHOW JOE

PUTS ON A NICE SHOW

SCORES DURING THE SEASON

O DONT YA KNOW

BUT WHEN THE GAMES ARE BIG

AND THE SEASON IS ON THE LINE

NO SHOW JOE

WILL NEVER HIT THE TWINE

THE SHARKS MADE HIM CAPTAIN

WHY WON'T THEY LEARN?

JOE AINT THE ANSWER

WE ALL SEE THE PATTERN

GETS LOTS OF POINTS

WHEN IT DON'T MATTER

JOE IS A CHOKER

THAT IS THE CHATTER

PAVELSKI, NIEMI

MARLEAU AND BOYLE

CAN'T CARRY JOE

WHEN HIS PANTS SOIL

JOE GRABS HIS THROAT

CHOKES ON HIS STICK

HE MOVES TOO SLOW

HE SURE AINT QUICK

HE GETS MORE THAN A POINT PER GAME

BUT WHEN THE SHARKS CHOKE

JOE NEVER GETS THE BLAME

JOE IS NOW THE 7 MILLION DOLLAR MAN

CAN'T LEAD A THIRSTY HORSE TO WATER

THE WAY YZERMAN CAN

SO LETS BE GRATEFUL

THAT WE CHEER FOR THE WINGS

JOE IS A PLAYOFF LOSER

OUR BOYS HAVE THE RINGS

Is Joe really worth 7 per year?

A quick no here...I dont think a non playoff performer is worth 7 mllion a year. Of course, if you look at contract that some guys have (Drury, Dipietro, Huet) well, its pretty subjective

Look at it this way, if they didn't resign him, they wouldn't make playoffs and wouldn't sell tickets. Their goal isn't to win the Cup, it's to stay in playoff contention, even if they get eliminated due to Joe's choking.

I'm pretty sure every teams' goal is to win the cup.

I'm talking year-to-year goals. You better believe that Anaheim knows they're not going to win the Cup. So they set other goals, like making playoffs, or performing above a certain level. THey'll never SAY their goal isn't to win the Cup, but it's reality. Teams that are early in rebuilding don't seriously make a goal to win the Cup, their goals is to take strides toward winning.

San Jose, while they COULD win the Cup, knows they can't attract more talent if they get rid of Thornton. They can't win without more talent and thus, they resign Joe.
