Nope, it was Atlanta, but they needed to make the playoffs to save the GM's job, which led to two desperation trades. Coburn for Zhitnik and a picks and prospects package for Keith Tkachuk

Yeah, getting old sucks. The memory is the first to go. At least I think it's the memory...

Cheapshot! Below the gumline!

I'd put a pic of cooter's smile up but doing that from the phone is tricky and lunch is almost over

Speaking of which, anyone want to play Expert?

True, but that's not a rule of thumb.

LOL. That's actually pretty good.

No, I am fully acknowledging that my speculation is for fun and thats what hockey boards are for.

I just have an issue with people who think they are experts in an area where there is no expert.

We call this a thread so as to not be confused with the filth that posts on boards.

I'll allow your response because my pic failed. I would say lighten up a little. Yes, there are those that are know-it-all's and those who cannot agree to disagree.

It's the internet. Better off letting it go...

I'll figure this out eventually.... Don't want to hurt myself.

I may be mistaken, but wasn't Nashville about to head into their first playoffs that year? They were probably looking for a veteran blueliner and had grown a bit impatient with Coburn's development (and impatience is something we're far too familiar with here).

Of course, Holmgren could have just been lucky as hell, too.

Who also did pretty much nothing for them that post season, if my memory serves.

Identify team need + vastly overrate own player + check stats on NHL.com + quick stop at capgeek = internet trade rumor

They got swept, but made the playoffs. Don Waddell kept his job until sane people bought the team and moved it to Winnipeg

It was fantastic when he buried the Rags the other night with two goals! I wish he would have used his stick to give the Fonz a prostate exam.
