You and I very well know when people are completely blinded by the facts you need strong measures to get your point across to them.

I'll NEVER question the wisdom and infallibility of Darcy Regier EVER AGAIN!!! /sarcasm off/


Squanto, you're right -- he could have made the argument without the "eff off" . . .

But, as the saying goes, "When a man uses profanity to support an argument, it indicates that either the man or the argument is weak - probably both."
/snark off/

Back on topic:

Darcy has made trades before, tis true, but, rather than making the so-called "blockbuster" trade, they've been for people best described as journeymen -- Steve Heinze, Steve Bernier, Bob Corkum, etc. -- over the years, when people like Theo Fleury and Jay Bouwmeester were available . . .

And, as I mentioned on the other boards, when Regier shipped Paille to BOS earlier this season, he might've considered that his trade deadline move for this year . . .

And Bouwmeester is having his worst season in the past 6 years.

We'd probably be calling for Regier's head if we had Bouwmeester right now.

I'm very worried. I know he may be physically exhausted. But mentally beyond exhausted. Now if they had won the gold medal. He would have been on a high that would have carried him for a while.
