Ryan, I do also think that Cally deserves a shot but I am not sure he slots in well across from Gabby. Then again, Aaron Voros worked well with the sniper so maybe a kid with grit could be a good fit. <br /><br />I don't know, I just think that you can't pass up the kind of deal that Prospal is, even if it pushes kids down the depth chart. We are never going to build a champion in New York - that is just the sad state of affairs, we have (luckily) built a solid core around mid and low level draft picks and now we need to buy the necessary accessories - we got the big bling in Gaborik but you gotta floss it right, yo.Scotty Hockeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18440672878311338910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169155003164451698.post-44372716191696471202009-07-28T20:25:49.065-04:002009-07-28T20:25:49.065-04:00This year's team is possibly better poised to ...This year's team is possibly better poised to win a cup, assuming the new acquisitions pan out better than Gomez, Drury, and Redden did before them. However, I think the past year proves a few things:<br /><br />Depth is useless without accountability. We can have a whole bunch of big names on the team, but, if they aren't motivated to play to the best of their potential, there's no cup in sight.<br /><br />Youth is necessary, but, as the 2005-06 season proved, youth and heart is not enough to win a cup.<br /><br />And, finally, organization is key. Last year's team had youth, had age, had the big names, and the role players. They very well could have won the cup. But, there hasn't been a team that has gone to the playoffs and won without a solidly developed first line and at least a cohesive if not effective second line.<br /><br />I think Prospal can be a key player in either a first or second line, add some experience, some legitimate skill, and could be acquired without giving up much of that existing youth in the franchise and this team would be better poised to make the playoffsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169155003164451698.post-26534241646596662492009-07-28T19:54:38.623-04:002009-07-28T19:54:38.623-04:00Scotty is Zherdev really gone on Friday or is that...Scotty is Zherdev really gone on Friday or is that wishful hoping?Faraway Fanhttp://lekekdkj.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169155003164451698.post-20747071975096525582009-07-28T18:36:56.215-04:002009-07-28T18:36:56.215-04:00I'd really rather see Callahan get a shot at t...I'd really rather see Callahan get a shot at the first line. I think Prospals' performance last year was more a product of being on a bad team in a bad locker room. I think that he could be good on Gabby's wing, but I'd rather see youth.Canyon of Blueshirtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08963604662950354647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169155003164451698.post-73757912551217538762009-07-28T15:24:00.673-04:002009-07-28T15:24:00.673-04:00i dig those jerseysi dig those jerseysAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169155003164451698.post-56583862863639510572009-07-28T14:20:51.962-04:002009-07-28T14:20:51.962-04:00naaa too old lets just stay with the getting young...naaa too old lets just stay with the getting younger tone...not like we're gonna win the cup this year unless gabby plays 82 games and cally and dubi have a great year infront of hank. bring up a kid instead.matt sullyhttp://www.webleedblue.netnoreply@blogger.com
