What the Faulk
You'll know when you go
I skimmed the Eric stuff, and I think any attempts at wanting him to stay are revisionist history. I miss his production as much as anyone, but his play declined here (through his fault or other circumstances such as Peters/injury), and I fully agree that he wasn't making players better. I think he could be much more successful between Aho and Teravainen than than Jordan, but the trade absolutely had to happen when it did, and I don't think he would have signed here for similar money to what he did in Minnesota. It's unfortunate, because had they gone against popular opinion and re-signed him, I think they're comfortably in the playoffs right now.
Aho // Eric // Teravainen
Rask // Jordan // Williams
Skinner // Lindholm // Stempniak
McGinn // Ryan // Nordstrom
That's a real team.
