Title: Who do you miss most?
Description: Interesting....
rifleman22 - October 24, 2007 07:09 PM (GMT)
Okay, of all the players lost this past off season and including the past few, who, if anyone, do you miss most? Who, if you could blink and they were on this team, would fit nicely with our current version? Of course you need to keep in mind that someone of equal value would have to be voted off the Island...
So, if you add one, you need to take one off, too. This could be interesting.
I, personally, would love to see Raffi Torres on this team. And I would send Satan packing.
Now, I am not against Satan, in fact, I like him. But the thought of Raffi with the way this team is structured would be a blast.
Enter the fray...

Jokinen, but they have no forwards of equal value to replace.

Kevin Colley. It would have been nice to see what this kid could have done under Teddy. Very sad ending to what could have been a real nice story. Hope he is doing well.

Got to see him win the Turner Cup twice here in Utah. :thumbsup:

Zdeno Chara and the pick that got Jason Spezza and never having Yashin
:cry:
BritBlueNOrange - October 24, 2007 10:40 PM (GMT)
Brad Isbister... yes, im kidding, IM KIDDING ALREADY!!!
KJ is the obvious choice i feel...
2001-2002 version of Michael Peca was awesome...
Is it too early for Jason Blake...
Hmmm...
I genuinly miss Mark Parrish's presence in the crease though, I know alot of people didnt feel he contributed to other aspects of the game, but he would score a ton of goals with MAB and Berard at the point...
the last point is worthy of thinking about.

I'd give back Mark Parrish and Oleg if we could have back Jolkenin and Luongo. Did we make that trade just to have easier names to spell on the jerseys? Honestly, Parrish + Oleg didn't = one of them, let alone both.
Still, I'd love to have Mark Parrish on LI. He'd fit in well with Teddy Ballgame.

Steve Webb was great for the fans, and the building.... but how about timmy connelly without the concussions
BritBlueNOrange - October 24, 2007 10:54 PM (GMT)
Just a thought... between Luongo and Jokinen - Luongo has seen ONE Post-season??
Parrish and Kvasha, goodness knows, about 5 or 6 between them?...
Obviously anyone with some brain cells would take Jokinen and Luongo but it is sorta funny how stats workout sometimes!!
:P

He was one of my favorites that year. That's probably the worst thing ever. I would have loved to see him develop on the island. :cry: :cry:
