LOL at Horton BTW...he never was going back to Boston because he is too much of a pussy. He wants to play in SMALLER markets...what a fool. he's a fool because of that? I think he wanted to play in Columbus because they have an amazing management team. JD, Kekalainen, etc. Columbus has a very talented young core and more coming.

I actually agree with you...they have great management now (about time), and they'll be in a good position within a few years...still, though. Dude didn't like a BIG market...to me, if you don't want to play in a big market, your a fucking pussy.

I think that someone who has two loves, family and hockey, doesn't want the distractions of a big city, wants to focus on his two loves. That doesn't result in a pussy, more a person of integrity. But I'm old.

Completely disagree with your take on that one...if you don't want to play for a top 5 hockey market, then you're just a fucking idiot. I want a great fan-base, not a shitty one.

I don't really see how Columbus is a shitty market. Ohio St. is there. The team has just been run poorly. Maybe there is no tradition sure, but how about trying to bring on there? Agree to disagree I suppose.

Yeah, Columbus COULD be a great market...didn't word that properly...but I'd take an ESTABLISHED fan-base with a rich history over a 10 Year franchise...either way, my main point is...he's an idiot because of the pure fact of not wanting to play for a HUGE market...

D-Rowe...The Devils are near bankruptcy...so it's not a completely bad thing. However, the thing the Devils are really pissed about is losing Parise because of Kovy's contract.

I played hockey, not professionally of course, but the one thing I loved about playing was the challenge. I think Horton just wants a new challenge. He's entitled to that based on his tenure, hate him if you wish, but I commend him for doing something most players wouldn't do.

What challenge? How about trying to win MULTIPLE championships with a team...I play Dek Hockey, and our team has won 4 of the past 5 championships...you want to know what motivates me? Being the best player possible and continuing to win championships.
Horton was leaving regardless because Columbus would be paying him the most, so no, I don't commend him. Heck, I think he's a very solid hockey, and respect him in that regard. I just think he's a bitch for not giving Boston a chance since they resurrected his career.
PS- I'm not a Boston fan...just so you didn't think I have sour grapes on the issue.

Ya, but he also cost them a draft pick because they bent over for him, and he did it AFTER free agency so they couldn't use that money to make (good) signings

What was the pick?

Bruins looked fucking awesome in the first preseason game, 4 PP goals, Iggy scored twice, as did Johnson. Krecji line looks dirty.
