Milan Lucic. I'd love to have him in red and white. He's a tough cookie, but he's not afraid to score as well.
I only regret that I have but one like to give.

I'm surprised no one said Backstrom. He's Swedish, a great passer, defensively responsible, clutch and has a laser for shot.

James Wisniewski
I grew up in Plymouth-Canton and I'm a big Whalers fan. Jimmy grew up in Plymouth-Canton and played with the Whalers as the hometown boy. Not only was he the hometown boy though, he was also the best player on the team. He captained the Whalers, won the OHL's most outstanding D-man award, won the CHL's D-man of the year award, was a scoring machine, had a helluva slap shot, and was far from scared to drop the gloves. Dynamic and fun to watch. Could not believe he slipped to the 5th round in the draft, and was very disappointed that the wings passed on a Michigan boy. I know he gets a bad rap around here....but he has his reasons for robbing CBJ with an overpaid contract.

Martin St. Louis. Class act, magic with the puck, and a heart two times the size of his 175 lbs.
Honorable mention: Colton Orr. A little bit soft, but a goal scoring machine who skates like the wind blows.

ya, same reason's Semin has!
I too, would have loved to have him here last season...it would have been a bit different outcome I do believe...maybe not a Cup, but different for sure!Anyhow, I have always been a fan of Andrew Ladd...he ALWAYS killed Detroit when he was in Chicago, and I still would LOVE to have him on this team!

Semin has been givin every chance, hes just a lazy piece of s***. Wiz was never given a chance and got shipped around all across the league like a commodity. Played for 5 different teams before he was 28. Kinda sad actually, teams just kept flipping him for more assets. Had his time in the NHL gone differently he may have said no way jose to CBJ and signed here last season. I thought he was the perfect Rafalski replacement. Alas it was not meant to be.
