Re: \"Treestandbowhunter offical 2006/7 NHL thread\"
Yea,just read that.Wideman never really was that great,and was even benched a few games so it looks like they did alright by getting a guy from Boston that can get a few points.It's aggrivating because they're dumping their best players for draft picks,and the Blues are horrible at drafting.They took Erik Johnson first overall last year,and he might be playing college hockey for another year now.If they would've taken Jordan Staal they would have been set with a guy ready for the NHL and someone to score a few goals.All I hear is the Blues are building for the future,but I'm ready for them to start winning now....and so is the city.If it takes them 4 or 5 more years to make it to the playoff,they may be in real trouble.They are having a really hard time drawing crowds,and with rest of the season looking bad they'll have a hard time making any kind of money this year.
