Could be a hell of a line...

Ya then you factor dorsett an prust....thats just the forwards. Stewart sounds pretty damn mean by the reports Ive read.

Then on D theres pedan and tryamkin, cedarholm, sbisa....all punishing guys.

we'd be very hard to play against if they all made it the following year....

only issue with making a tough team is that benning forgets he no longer has an owner that is chairman of BOG and whos team can get away with murder and controls refs.

You look at something that he has done 3 or 4 times in his career and magnify it.

I look at him as a 2 nd line power forward that will score 20 goals , stop other teams from taking liberties with some of our star players , and create space.

I look at him as one of the premiere Douchebags of the NHL, and would never cheer for him if he had an Orca on his chest.

Literally has nothing to do with the fact he was a bruin or the fact we lost the cup to him. He's a cry baby little prik and I would never approve of him in Green and Blue.

Cheap shot artist A$$hole.

Benning likes him and he want to play here. There was a poll on the 1040'this morning . Last I heard 54 % wanted him here.

Like I said it is a pretty even vote of not wanting him here and wanting him. I am not here trying to win him votes.

I would take him as a second liner over Higgins Hansen Burrows Vrbata Grenier Sven or anyone else we have on our team.

Top 6 players are not readily available unless they are aging. To me he is the best option , but I know lots here won't be happy

I could see him cashing in on his next contract and then fading on whoever signs him. I hope it's not us. I don't like the player and I bet I'd grow to hate the contract.

Who are you putting here then?

He might be a male prostitue with how much he sucks

I wish Sbisa, Benning and Prust could get you alone for 5 minutes lol

I'm with you Vantel, he is a POS but I don't care. Hockey is a mean game and intimidation helps win games. I play like an ahole but the guys in the room appreciate it. Fans will come around

He is allowed his opinion. Not everyone is in favour of the moves this year.

Nucker is a good guy. No use getting upset.

Problem is he is used to playing for bruins where suspensions dont exist. This year on his new team he may set a new record for suspensions in a single year.

Still am floored he didnt get suspended for his brutal hit on miller a few years back.

Im also wondering how Miller would feel about him being here, might not be good for team solidarity

So that benning could sign him to an inflated contract?

Probably only need 2 min for that

I think so too . Fans have a short memory. Soon as he scores a big goal they will cheer

LA have a few dirtbags that get away with stuff. My favourite player is still Corey Perry

Not upset at all, he is entitled to his opinion. Although, I wish he would drop the Sbisa hate or at least mix his tune

Mine was bertuzzi when he was here. still think he was amazing back then till his head got messed and was often the best player on most nights.
Fond memories of Kesler as well, but he was no bert.

We shall see how he does in LA. Might be suspended frequently. could crash and burn under Sutter too. Wouldnt be surprised, the team hates the coach and cant imagine Lucic is that diplomatic

- VANTEL

Whoever, I don't know who might be available. Internal hire, ideally. Putting aside my distaste for the player, my biggest concern would be that he gets paid on reputation but his play degrades quite fast, which isn't unheard of with power forwards.

I know he has been on his case. Like I said Nucker is a really good guy . He has been a great poster for years. He is just pissed this summer.
