Ive wondered why they dont give him a try. If this team was merit based, Vlasic wouldve been scratched a long time ago.

Why not? It's cap that's going to be there either way, and if no one will take it, we might as well play someone who actually can add to the roster. Buying Vlasic out is a terrible terrible idea that sounds good in the short term, but will screw us for years.Because in the world we live in we can't afford to bench a 7 million dollar a year contract. Only option with that price tag is to play/trade/buy out. And as of right now only 1 is a viable option.

The Blackhawks organization has guts, which is why they have those three cups.

Takes a lot of guts to win the draft lottery and get a superstar
The guts the Hawks had was utilizing long term cap circumvention
No doubt Chicago had draft luck. But so did the Sharks...they just pissed the picks away. Another way of framing it: they had the guts to tank and take a step back in order to win in the future. The gormless Sharks continue to constantly thread water, fearful of drowning.
Let's not forget that Duncan Keith was drafted in the 2nd round, and is superior to any player the Sharks have ever drafted.
I don't think Chicago tanked so much as they just had a bad team. They were bad for most of the decade leading up to getting Kane and Toews and they missed on their 3rd overall in 2004, Cam Barker.
Pavelski might be the best 7th round pick of all time.No doubt Chicago had draft luck. But so did the Sharks...they just pissed the picks away.
