You are obvioulsy a huge Dion fan and are upset that he was traded - I get that. But for $6.5 million a year, Dion needs to be a norris cantidate NOW, and he is not even close. In fact, he is being passed development wise by his own draft year and those after him (hmmmm...kinda reminds me of that Morris guy).

I am a fan. I wouldn't have traded him. And if I did, at least get a superstar in return, a top prospect, or 1st rounders. That is why I am so angry.
Watching OTR this afternoon, the one reporter was saying that he has talked to different gm's and they were all baffled. Those gm's would have thrown together offers better than what we received from TO.
Flames get Iginla, Dallas get Nieuwendyk. Dallas wins the cup.
Flames get (superstar), (team) get Phaneuf. Calgary wins the cup.
We didn't get a superstar in return, nor will we win with these players.
