You had Hawk supporting you and it's only one spot so don't try to sell me that can of worms. don't care what you said. don't care who was "supporting me," i haven't taken a position on spezza. he did play better tonight as the game went on and he got himself back up to game speed. he wasn't great but he's clearly going to be a factor in the games to come. don't want to sell you a can of worms, want you to act like you're not a hockey god because sorry you aren't. your opinion is a very small minority among players, coaches, GMs, scouts, media analysts, etc. aka people who get paid to know and play hockey at the highest level. they don't make the trollish arguments about spezza and other players like you have. i don't know if all those people are right but the weight of their opinion to yours is mount everest compared to a pebble. a pebble that gets in your shoe. * * * sick game tonight, i dont care if the pens lost. the play in those 2 OTs by both teams was very good. that was some excellent playoff hockey we saw tonight. still think the pens in 5 or 6, but if they don't capitalize on so many fat scoring chances like tonight, they're in trouble. on the other hand ottawa had a lot of fat chances and didn't get them in the net either, probably just because both goalies absolutely stood on their heads tonight. | ||

Um no it isn't and that's exactly the point I was making lmao. I never said Spez wasn't good, but he is overrated. It's not just me speaking & I do know hockey but keep firing blanks and amuse more. | ||

That doesn't change the fact that Alfie & Heatley are two of the biggest reasons why Jason started to make 8mil a season starting back in 08-09 all the way up until now. Next season, Jason`s a bargain as he drops down to 5mil and the season after that he`ll be paid 4mil. That's a much better price, but for 8mil I much rather have fifteen other guys filling that role. Unfortunately really good centres are hard to come by especially when half a dozen teams are looking for one. It's not easy finding a good two-way centre and the last guys to go were Jordan Staal and Brad Richards. High demand; but, very few to select. If Alfie decides to quit and the Senators start to dwindle out of the playoff picture in the next few years (which, I highly doubt) perhaps it would be in Bryan Murray`s best interest to try and move Spezza before a trade deadline to maximize his return rate because it would be stupid high (considering Jason would be down to 4/5 mil which is a really good price for him). Right now it's the Senators youngsters who are getting the job done. They have a solid core. | ||

in a vacuum, i think that was too much for nash. but slats addressed it with the Gabby trade. I think the roster as is now would be fine with 82 games to get used to each other. my point is that it seems kind of silly to have to do this when we know that the rangers team last year was good enough for the ECF | ||
