Those advocating the Richards and Carter trades as good moves that were orchestrated by Holmgren. Think again those players had a huge hand in being dealt. Ever hear of Dry Island? They had to go. But yes the returns became the core of this team except for G.
As for Hextall over baking talent? Provy, TK, Patty. Yeah he over baked every prospect.
As I've said both Holmgren and Hextall had their pluses and minuses. Hextall was the right Game when he had promoted. He got fired for not listening to his bosses and also having his move this year get a freak injury. Project JvR over a full season. It's exactly what they wanted. Too bad he missed so many games.
