Sure he signed them, but its not like they signed there because Yzerman is the GM, I'm sure his pitch didn't hurt, but I doubt his pitch was sign here because I'm Steve Yzerman. They signed there because they are joining a young team with loads of undeveloped talent and because they can step into the NHL line-up from day 1.
Not ONE of those signing have stepped in NHL line-up from day one and became regular; most are still in minors and will be next year too.
They weren't young team with loads of talent as Stevie signed those first guys.
Sustr, can make that argument but that's about it. And if one follows Hf consensus, Tampa is pretty much doomed team as Marty is aging etc.
you just proved my point for me. in the end, it didn't matter that yzerman was the gm, brunner still turned him down
some of you are grasping at straws for why you want yzerman to replace holland as gm
That isn't the reason I'd want Stevie Y here.
How about those other kids that he DID sign, why no mention?
