It's so fine to see an owner who seems to have a personal quest to bring a cup to his city. Whether he's a hockey pundit or not.

I think the biggest flack Aquaman got was when he fired Nonis because he didn't sell the farm for Richards.
Nonis sticking to his plan actually helped this franchise. He lost his job but can you imagine how different this team would be right now if he made the trade? No Kesler, no 1st rounder (I think it would have been Hodgson's pick) and Luongo possibly not re-signing
