this franchise has never made the blockbuster deals to make it a true contender. Usually just enough to build the hipe and in this city it is not hard. We are so desperate for a winner we got excited when they picked up wellwood. Sundin is the biggest waste of money, they could have gotten shanahan for alot less and by far a better player with more character. current ownership only cares about the bottom line............the only way to see real change is to stop filling the seats then maybe they will take it serious until then its money in the bank
totally agree on almost every point, but i'm willing to give sundin some more time; he is after all, 38 yrs old who's in no shape to compete w/ the rest of the boys who've played regularly since training camp. whoever thought he's 'in shape' b/c he's a professional athlete is a total joke...listen to the niedermeyers/selannes, they'll be the first to admit it was tougher than they thought.
Wellwood's a total joke; remember that pic which showed his boobies sitting on the lawn chair while he was rehabbing? great pic, the Province, that was hilarious...and he's a hockey player??? well, guess so, he's making $900,000 more than i am, ahahhaa.
yes, let's stop paying these insane prices, then the Nucks' management will finally smarten up. until then, go ahead and whine about these nuckleheads, they're not that good, as this 10 game losing streak shows.
