Roster moves, player performance, management etc... are all up for grabs and discussion. How much supposed 'class' a player has because you made something up out of thin air really isn't. There's no room for actual discussion there. We can instead get plenty of discussion out of how wrong you've been with some of the things you've posted. It was already pointed out to you that Louie played hardball last summer when it really wasn't called for, so I guess you didn't look into things much before labeling a guy. It all worked out in the end, though. It's ultimately a business. Players will do what they think is in their best interests, the same as organizations do. Stone just filed for arbitration. Want to say that he has no class, or that Dahlbeck somehow has more class?
Apparently, discussion may mean something different to you than it does me. I'm not trying to win an argument or change anyone else's opinions with my posts. If you don't like what I say, fell free to not post a reply. I'll be sure to add "in my opinion" more, although I kind of see that as implied in this medium.
On Domingue, I live in the present, not the past, what he did last year (in terms of his contract) is irrelevant to me today. I just think he should have been offered a higher contract this year for pretty much keeping us competitive while Smitty was recovering. Also, if you want to re-visit the past,
I think his intention last year was somewhat justified (thus not classless). He wasn't getting his chances here and then they went and signed Lindback, pretty much limiting him to AHL duty. As chance would have it, he got his opportunity and showed that he actually did have the skills that Maloney felt was overconfidence (or as he put it "he’s always been quite confident in himself, and he just thought he deserved more than a two-way contract basically is what it came down to and that’s fine...") I guess Domingue was right
I'll somewhat hold off commenting on Stone or Dahlbeck (not a big fan of either), but both situations are quite a bit different. In my opinion (hope that's clearer), Dahlbeck (and Connauton for that matter) didn't sign a lower deal he (they)
could have found elsewhere. Also, in my opinion, Stone
probably filed arbitration because he received a low ball offer of 1.5 million (or something); so far, it
appears (in my opinion) that management is offering low budget/low term deals because they
perhaps want to spend their time negotiating, but I could be wrong...
It's nice that you've elaborated on how you ultimately reached your strange conclusions but you still haven't given any explanation as to how a given path makes a player classy or classless.
