RE: [Devils-list] Gomes/White vs. Weight/PotiLOL... I know what you mean
Don.  I met him when he was drafted, and got to spend about 15 minutes with
him then.  Came off as a real egotistical asshole. ;-)  NOT.
Honestly, when I met him, he was one of the nicest kids I spoke to that day.
I find it hard to believe his teammates don't like his easy going
personality.
Rick

  C'mon Rick. Can't you tell from his attitude that he's an unfriendly, mean
kinda guy? Doesn't he come off as an absolute jerk. Always spouting
criticism and always in a foul mood.


   --------


  A buddy of mine is from New Glasgow and he headed back this weekend for a
big party, of which one of the attendees will be be Mr. White. My friend
offered to get an autograph but I declined it... I was told that it probably
wouldn't be all that legible given that when he's in New Glasgow he's rarely
to be found sober.

    How do you know that guys do not like him off the ice? Are you in the
locker room?  Scott Stevens spoke to you about it personally?  If you have
some evidence of this, I'd love to see it. An article where someone says
something... something solid... not... "I have a buddy who met so-and-so
once, and he says..."

      Gomez is great on ice. But a lot of the boys do not like him off the
ice, and
      that is a huge impact.   And is not Rangeresque to trade 21 for 30.
      Rangeresque is 20 for 35. White was a +32, but how many times did he
give up
      the puck this season. It isn't like he was great in the reg. season.
And I
      would guarrantee Poti would be +30 with the Devils, and White would be
a -4
      with EDM. Look at the teams. Reacting to that POTI has work to do in
the
      defensive end, so does White. White has to do work in that area, as
well as
      he can't move the puck. And we aren't sacrificing much for size, Poti
is 6-3,
      215, and can move the puck. And more than anything, like I said it
adds
      hunger. Gomez wasn't the only one, but he didn't show anything this
playoff
      year except for a a couple of games here and there. And don't even
bring up
      White, I can't stand him he is so much like Odelein or a Souray.
