No, personally i think Ducks 07 was one of the greatest cup team in my lifetime. I can remember the entire team on top of my head. Everyone else thinks LA12/CHI10 were the greatest.
The Hype - Do you like Paul Kariya?
Fucking retard.

"Oh wait, no!!! that's just what everyone else thinks!!"

I'm not going to feed the other people, but I'm just glad you recognize.
Regarding Paul Kariya, this may sound strange coming from a die hard (and people here can attest to it) Ducks fan, but I think he's a complete douchebag. People can point to his inspiring performance in Game 6 of the '03 Finals, but it was JS Giguere who put that team on his back and took them through the playoffs (not to mention the scoring was done by committee). What really made me dislike him however, is what happened right after. Big team rally in Anaheim and he tells the fans he's going to bring the Cup here in '04. Verbally commits to another contract, breaks it, takes a paycut and signs with the Avalanche. So not really a big fan of his, to say the least.

^lets hope thats not the case but, as someone mentioned earlier. We dont have a guy that will strike fear into our opponents. If byron bitz didnt get sooo injured all the time, id sign him Posted via RS Mobile
Yeah, anybody have any stats for hits in last night's game? I constantly saw Canuck players getting knocked over by Blues.
Edit: Hmm, according to the scoresheet on NHL.com the hits were 22-21 for the Blues (Backes with 6).

Not bringing back Torres at the price of a 3rf rounder was a huge mistake Posted via RS Mobile
It wasn't our decision. Doug Wilson took the better offer. I'm sure we offered something similar. But SJ's 3rd rounder would probably be a higher pick.
What I'm saying is that it doesn't matter if we have Torres to strike fear out there or not? Last time Torres was with us, Daniel was a punching bag. I like it how our lineup now consists more bigger guys than what we had in 2011 in tough guys that can stand up to you.
Kassian/Weise/Sestito/Pinnizotto vs Torres/Glass/Oreskovich (he's a financial consultant now)/ Bolduc?
The whole killer instinct or having players to strike fear like Torres? Last time Torres strike fear to Seabrook, Hawks almost came back from a 3-0 deficit and almost 1 goal from going to the second round. We need the mentality of you fuck with our guys? Wait till the next shift, we will fuck with yours.
5 - 10 spots higher in the third round doesn't really make much of a difference..
I'm thinking Gillis offered a 4th or a 5th instead
It's all speculation, but I feel he probably offered something similar. If you had a choice between better or good. How would you not chose better, regardless of how many spots.

I agree. We also need to factor in Tambellini's own opinion (personal) as well. I doubt the 5 - 10 spots would really matter to him. Who knows?
Maybe he knew Torres would push us over the top and he didn't want that. Maybe he was bitter after being with our organization for 17 years and not being GM? Pure speculation
3rd and 4th would of made better sense on an objective standpoint

tambellini was EDM GM so he didn't have torres to trade to us. i think you meant the GM in PHX?
