They did the moves they needed to do this summer. Nothing more, nothing less.
We weren't going to see Elias and Brodeur signed to extensions. Holik cryed
as a result of the business. Is Lou "archaic" in his negogiation tactics,
absolutely. On both sides, one it has worked. But then again, he needs to
start signing these guys to money/year contracts. He could complain about the
lack of cash to deal with, but that is his own fault. He and the organization
do absolutely nothing to generate revenue, and then bitch about it. Winning
doesn't fill seats, presentation of the product does. Onto Marty, I am very
concerned about him. I don't think he is Marty anymore, this coming from one
of his biggest fans and an idol goaltender of mine. He was just godly aweful
in the playoffs last season, and who knows??? Maybe this Ahonen or Damphousse
guys are our goalies in two 3-4 years from now, and not Brodeur. And maybe
Lou knows that.
