I don't look at him as an insurance policy. I look at him as eventually being just as good. We need more offence. If they don't draft him, they're worst then the Islanders. Yay!!
Let's look for the great MacT to find the D. By the way does anybody think Penner, Stoll or Greene would sign with the Oilers again? I'd reverse that trade for Stoll And Greene in a second, thought it was not good when it happened. Oh they really don't give a damn right now. Poor R Smyth! He would have won a cup.
Wake up Oiler fans.

So Stoll, Greene, Penner an Fraser play parts in a cup and a large amount of people are clamoring to bring these guy back again?
Visnovsky was and is still a better player than both Stoll and Green. Could we use those 2 players? Sure. That ship sailed 4 years ago, get over it. Stoll had 6 goals and 21 points this past year, even Eager had more goals.
Don't kid yourself, the players that played the biggest role in winning the cup were Kopitar, Brown, Richards, Doughty, Carter, Mitchell, Williams etc etc, not the former Oilers.
Also, I doubt the Kings win the Cup with Smytty. Would they have traded Johnson for Carter?
|
I think it's important to remember too that at the time of the trade, Stoll was a year removed from a serious concussion and coming off a dreadful season where he'd recorded 36 points in 81 games. There were serious doubts as to whether he'd ever get his game back.
Greene, like Peckham now, was pretty rough around the edges and while it was tough to give him up, it was a big upgrade from him to an all-star in Visnovsky. In the end, the Kings win the deal. Visnovsky didn't have his best seasons in Edmonton, Greene and Stoll have become integral parts of the Kings. But it was hard to know at the time that that would be the case.
As for Smyth, I don't think anyone should cry for a guy who demands a trade out of somewhere.
