he was supposed to be really good.
he had two decent season with 51 pts... but other than that...
He didn't need to work for his money either.
He got offered 12.25mil for 5 years right off the bat,
before the rookie salary cap existed.
I think Patrik Stefan was probably a better pick...
but partially was because Stefan's career was much shorter, and he had less time to embarrass himself.
(although everyone remembers how he missed the empty net point blank)
I just realized Daigle's first 4 seasons with Ottawa, he was -45, -22, -30, -33
His line must really suck, or maybe Ottawa was really bad back then. I can't remember. Those +/- stast are ridiculous.
