Jones is a effort guy, he's fairly fast, physical, drives to the net kills penalty and outside of last year has shown a good wrist shot and nice hands in close.

Tanguay passes the puck well. His skating was not as good as previous years. He avoided the corners like they had the plague and he did the unforgivable and gave up the ghost in the face of adversity instead of doing what a veteran should do and that's try to lead the way.

I hate to sound cruel about anyone but good riddance to Alex, his time here was done and I doubt that GM's were lining up for the guy.
20 something? lol you mean 28? Hardly that vast of an age gap. The guy isn't some kid. I'm not saying Tanguay should have stayed. I'd much rather see a pick for him though. A pick has no negative value. No 3 goal season. A pick is a pick and can be traded as such.
