I hated Moreau. We had a run in with him and a couple other dbags at Red Tail one day golfing. Total douche.

Hard to find guys like that, Iginla was the ideal power forward. Skill, toughness, leadership, durability. He could do everything.

He's sliding fast. He shot up after the world Jr's but now he's going 10-14 I bet.

It is because that's the job of your scouting to find the top 6 forward, top 4 D and starting goalies in the top 10 picks. obviously they don't turn out that way for a myriad of reasons, but getting a heart and soul guy there instead of something better is a failure of scouting.

Unless the team has a play it safe policy and it leans towards safe players over projects. I think back to last season when Anaheim took Ritchie and they could afford to gamble because they are a playoff team who fell into a top 10 pick, that is a team that can work with projects.

Then I think back to Colorado when they took MacKinnon over Jones because they needed to hit on that pick and despite their lack of defense Mack was the safe play because defense are hard to gauge.

Remember clouts? Where's he now? Garner?

Yeah if we on here don't like him he won't last.

We are his readers. If he pisses us off we stop reading. That's all I'm saying.

But you knew that

- Iggysbff

Yeah i knew that. And if you were the one to run clouts off then you definitely deserve an award or at least should wear a sash proclaiming this. Hendo is a good guy and he has to have his own writing style and can't please all his readers the way jero pleases all who line up at the glory hole.

Despite hating the Flames immensely I could never do anything but respect the Hell out of Iginla. He's everything you could want in a franchise player, sure would suck to have a guy like that and not win a Cup.

Step 1) claim rebuild
Step 2) ???
Step 3) miss playoffs and obtain mediocre 1st round picks

The Oilers better be careful if they turn into the Spoilers again. It would so be the Oilers to knock someone out of the playoffs and have that team win the lottery and pass the Oilers.
