Hockey, Throwing Bettman under a moving bus.. no really, a Greyhound on its way to Nashville would be a perfect bus to throw Bettman under. Sleeping, Yankees, Patriots
What choices are we left with.... Trades would hurt our depth. If this guy can replace some of what we lost when Parise went and joined his boy band in minny, I say do it short term. We need to lock up Zajac and others long term, so that should be our new priority.
I think the selling point is the fact that the Devils have been a competitive team every year since the 1995. I don't remember off hand, but have we made the playoffs every year but 2? Think of a team like Toronto that has been around a lot longer, but has not had the recent success we have.
