Man, Walter White is a certified badass.
This is going to be a tough one, Phoenix always has a good squad. Hopefully we get the Bolts version of Smitty and not the new and improved yotes one.
I give credit where credit is due. when a team loses its best player and they are still able to win games with the help of their goaltender, i admire that goaltender and his abilities.
if you guys don't like a fan from an opposing team coming on here and complimenting your team then i won't come on here.
I remember at the beggining of the season how many people from other teams said we had over paid for Bishop, gave Flip way too large of a contract, and how Yzerman should be fired soon.
I seem to recall before the season started how quite a few TAMPA BAY fans were saying those things and wanting Yzerman fired.
The outrage over buying VL out, why he didn't just acquire a top 4 D, overpaying for Filppula, etc. I would say "fire Yzerman, he's an idiot" was the popular opinion among people on this board (TB fans).
TSN did an interesting comparison between Detroit and TB the other day. They brought up the fact that Filpulla and Stephen Weiss were both UFA's and got almost identical contracts. Then they brought up the fact that Filpulla is having a great season and excelling in TB and Weiss....has 3 points. The conclusion was Yzerman got the best of the situation and Holland screwed up massively by letting Filpulla go and bringing in Weiss instead.

and flip wanted to move on. holland offered him 7 years for 4.75 mil just before free agency. flip and babcock didn't get along as well, that was the problem.

I don't remember that at all, save for maybe like 2 people.
I'm sure someone if they were so inclined, could go back over old posts and compile quite a list.
I would call it the majority of posts/posters to this board were of that opinion (Yzerman's an idiot, fire him).
Now that they're doing well no one remembers what they said?

No, it wasn't. There were a couple of Lightning fans who went there. There were a couple more who pointed out that he wasn't going to have an unlimited amount of time and would be fired eventually, if he didn't show results. Mostly, there were a bunch who were pissed about one transaction or another, but pointed out the transition in the minors and were willing to give more time.
