What was the worst thing he even did while he was here? Went after Kessel? Kessel was the one doing the lumberjack swings. I don't remember him really hurting someone while he was here.
In fact, one of the only things I remember is Mike Millbury being really upset about something and saying he didn't deserve to be in the league. Guy who beat a fan with his own shoe. - Zschalberg
I love it. I did just find out, however, that Dipietro wasn't signed to his 15 year contract by Milbury. He quit in June of 2006 and Dipietro was signed in September.
He was only suspended once while he was with us, for 7 games only 3 suspensions total in his career for a total of 13 games and 70k. - CoHo_to_B-Lo
got a bad rap, imo...always liked the guy...sure, he can't skate and scores about as often as Haley's comet comes around, but so what?...he had/has a job and that's to lay the hammer down on anyone stupid enough to cause trouble

Since he's been gone, have we had any issues with that?

Dipietro > Luongo
Chara + Spezza for Yashin
Signing Yashin to a 10 year contract

Wasn't Milbury the one that like threw a shoe at a fan or yelled he was gonna stab a fan with his skate or something like that too?
You can find 4th lines guys anywhere too. I can bring up a list on general fanager of at least 20. Schaller looks like a really good 4th liner which is why I'm excited for him.
McNabb would be a really good 3rd pairing and if that's where he was yeah, I'd be excited. But just like if we lost Schaller I'm not going to lose sleep over it. Your top 6 and your top 2 are what are going to make you a good team. Your bottom 6 and bottom pairings are going to make you even better if they're good. At this point I'm more focused on the top half. - Zschalberg
Idk why the focus has to be on one or the other though
The team as a whole needs work throughout the lineup
If Faschong works out & becomes a solid top6 winger than that's great. I've just always had my doubts about him.
And clearly, I've liked McNabb from the start
Nothing we can do about that now though except see what happens with Fasching
Since he's been gone, have we had any issues with that? - sbroads24
meh, a few, maybe...and he was rendered ineffective because nobody would fight him, I get all that...he's the last of the dodo's, but he had a sense of humor
