Baubles has wailed in blindness repeatedly since then.

Baubles is too small of a man to now acknowledge the vision and genius of Jim Benning.

That trade was prescient, days after, injuries hit and the Canucks needed Clendenning in the lineup.

How many posts have you guys spent bickering over whether Blob did or did not insinuate Forsling was some semblance of great? My guess is it's 2-3 times more than the various links and images posted by Mick.

:lol:

Every day buddy LOL!

Its always what blob or dude or doc said 5 years ago and exactly how accurate they were back then AND whether they're still entrenching themselves in this same point of view.

I've become addicted to enjoying this bickering and sniping. It really is fascinating

I like Schenn. Good ol' Saskie boy. But...locking him up til he is 37????? I don't understand the 8 year contracts being handed out to 2nd line players. It's a good deal now, but St Louis better be hoping he ages well.

I was thinking maybe they did it to keep the cap hit down.

Maybe buy out the last year or two if Schenn loses his game?

(and isn't LTIRed by then)
