i prefer my crow well done....
he's been great. really effective and dependable.
having said that, when he's put in a position to succeed, he can help this team. playing him in the bottom 6 is key and as we saw the other night, he can makes plays occasionally.
hes dumb as rocks mostly, but on the 4th line, or even with the other berg and say eric staal, he can be both effective and bring something we need. size, speed and forecheck with purpose.
hes not smart enough to play top 6, but he's certainly good enough to help us in the right role.

I remember some people saying we should have signed him to a two year, $1.1M deal instead of a 1 year because the risk could pay off and we'd risk losing him or having to overpay him.
Let's hope it's not another Pouliot situation. I'd like to see him back for full time 3rd line time at $1.5-2M/year for 2-3 years. He's worth that contract, and easily tradeable if things change.

From the article:
Yeah, probably because that idiot genius behind the bench is stuffing him on a line with Glass...

The reason I hate hearing about the loss of Stempniak over and over again is because is he would not be doing the same thing with the Rangers.
Stempniak had a lot of defincies. I just don't see how his departure hurt the Rangers.
So now, he is doing well with another team, yet again. Notice that none of the teams he ever makes this big impression with ever go anywhere with him.
Maybe there is a message in that.
Considering this is a Stalberg thread, I have to say how much I love Stalberg's play. I hope he gets out there and crunches a Penguin really, really early on in Game 2. Rangers do have some good speed. I'm pretty happy that Stalberg goes out and uses it.

I'd likely take the bigger longterm contract as this point in his career . He's done a good job but is replaceable
