[QUOTE="torontoeers, post: 129316984, member: 1621210"] I agree with much of what you say here...I have tons of respect for what LL has accomplished in his career, but as you say he has run into his share of luck along the way too...getting Scott Stevens back as part of that Shanny rfa signing is one MAJOR example. Lou really hasn't done too much over tge last 10 yrs, especially at the draft table, some of those druthers could also be blamed on an ownership who until very recently after being sold tied his hands with save, save, save! He also had one hell of a goaltender. .. Now....what do you think of the trade/ signings today? I quite liked Sutter but we could not afford him long term and he was our best trade prospect. I think we received fair value in return, Bonino is a nice addition....and this Fehr signing! 2 mil per for a 6'4 215 lb Centre with 19 goals last year? Well done GMJR! He's not exactly the prototypical big man I was looking for but he comes pretty damn close! We should now have the depth to compete with these other big Metro teams...not too shabby when you can pluck one from the Craps roster either! [/QUOTE]
