You can't be serious. maybe that's because they were garbage.

Regehr - 5 pts, -12 after traded
Bourque - 8 pts, -16 in 38 games after traded
Sutter - not even the oilers wanted him
Bouwmeester - was more disliked as a Flame than now
Comeau - see Bouwmeester
Jokinen - 14 pts, -19 this season after being let go

Wideman and Hudler filled needs on this team and were bright spots on an otherwise terrible team and season. Both players have their warts but nobody's overrating them.

Really enjoy your hockey insights most of the time but sometimes you try too hard to be devils advocate. You're creating a mainstream opinion that doesn't even exist, in order to be the voice of reason here.
