Brule to Edmonton for Torres is an Ok deal. IF IF IF his knee is rehabbed.
Mike Commodore? Are you kidding me. This is the "Big Splash" on UFA's? I think our worst fears have been realized. Nobody wants to come here. The past is destined to become our future. Get used to low to no scoring games for the foreseeable future. At almost 9pm of UFA day 1 Howson gets a solid D. Some of it is not his fault, but he has had a year to make this franchise more of a destination. All that sitting back and doing nothing has now caught up to him. But hey you can buy partial season tickets (10 or 20 games) without a PSL AND get Playoff tickets if they ever get there. Hmmmm.
Do we really care that Dan Fritsche for Pavel Kubina is the current rumor? Will it matter?
Sure we have more money to spend, but the talent is gone. The big name players that will attract fans to the arena are not going to be traded here. We have no #1 center and in all likelihood have no hope of moving up with the moves that Chicago Blackhawks, Phoenix Coyotes, and Edmonton Oliers have done in the Western Conference. Hell we may be contenders for the first pick in the Draft next year. This is really not the way things were planned out. As a pessimist i must say this is how I saw it playing out today and for Scott Howson its only going to get worse. Can the man do a trade without Edmonton and Kevin Lowe?
