Commandant Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Question is if it is better - cole and maxpac are huge upgrades. But the loss of Cammy and Ak46, with the acquisition of Bourque is a huge downgrade. I also don't like having both DD and Gionta as potential top 6 wingers - I've been saying since last year's playoffs that DD should be on the wing. I don't think it is better either, but you can't blame it on lack of size anymore. All those who spent years clammoring for size, I wonder if they are happy with what they wished for in guys like Bourque, Darche, Staubitz, Blunden, Nokelainen who certainly don't lack size? Talent trumps all... bring me talent, and I'll let you worry about the size of that talent. If we signed Zach Parise, I'm sure SOME FANS would bring up the fact that he's 5'10" as a negative.

That is his only real negative though. Everything else is positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machine of Loving Grace Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 That is his only real negative though. Everything else is positive. He's also the best looking man in hockey. This is important to mention when Commandant is around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Machine of Loving Grace Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 MY gf right next to me said "yeah he is pretty good looking" He's got a Chris Evans/Josh Hartnett thing going on that NJ doesn't do anywhere near enough to sell people on. Maybe that's why he hasn't signed yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
