The future is bright. Players actually wanting to come sign there is a big step for the franchise. I have always had a soft spot for Columbus. Ever since the Federov days lol. I know they went through their renaissance a few years back when Torterella first set them up as a tough to play against team and they got a new GM in Keks. A guy who actually made sound hockey moves.... But this is even more of a step. It marks Columbus as a stable hockey market now in my eyes. Good for them.
thanks for your kind words montreal, I will never understand the cruel nature of so many people on this site. This is suppose to be fun, a place to go to talk hockey.
I'm more than willing to see the CBJ dump players (and picks if needed) for Laine. Pay the man, get everyone in camp, and let's roll. Will the CBJ be a playoff team? Who knows now, but there were a lot of fun games in CBUS last year with a team that was supposedly among the worst 5 teams in the league.
I fear we’ll hear a lot of cannon shots in the future, getting Gaudreau makes Columbus a lot more attractive to other players, well played Jarmo - Karine Hains
Bon chance Karine! Columbus est très interessant maintenant
