Christ, man, did you have to bring that up? That equalization provision was easily the most idiotic thing ever in the NHL CBA. As a Blues fan, I realised how dumb Sebastian Caron was when they kept making what seemed at the time like ridiculous compensation offers for Shanahan (of course both Brind'Amour and Joseph wound up turning out great). He then followed this up by exchanging Brind'Amour, Geoff Courtnall and Cliff Ronning for Garth Butcher, Ron Sutter and Murray Baron. That pretty much ended my tenure as a Blues fan.
Lamiorello's arguments, given the context, are entirely reasonable. What could have been...
You mean Sebastian Caron was calling the shots for the Blues at age 10? Damn, no wonder he decided to take up goaltending instead!moneyp said:As a Blues fan, I realised how dumb Sebastian Caron was when they kept making what seemed at the time like ridiculous compensation offers for Shanahan (of course both Brind'Amour and Joseph wound up turning out great).

Don't worry. When Ron Jacober was calling Blues games and we had Steve Leach on the team, we had several plays where according to Jacober, Brian Leetch either scored, had an assist, or just made a good play for the Blues.moneyp said:Whoops, Ron Caron. Brain fart.

}>Stevens said when Lamoriello first brought him to New Jersey back in 1991, Lamoriello not only picked him up in person at the airport, but had two car seats in the back for Stevens' kids.
