One of my favorite places. That being said, that Stanley Cup team of '96 had two things this team hasn't had for at least the last 3 years. A solid work ethic. and leadership. It's too early to see if McCabe makes a difference as the captain, but the other guys like Stillman, Leopold, forget it. Also, thanks to Jackass Martin for not trading Bouwmeester, we end up with nothing. Instetad of keeping the guy that didn't want to leave Olli, we try to keep the one that didn't want to stay!

This goes back to the stanley cup here with all "no names". They still live by that theme. No reason not to play Clemenson.

Here's the problem. The salary cap is 56 million this year. The Kittie Cats are spending 54 million. They spend money like drunken sailors! Then they realize that they can't get a quality player cause there's no room left. So they just keep getting retreads. That's not a way to build a franchise. You're comments are right on Karen.
