It is unlikely that most of the people you would lump in that group hates everything, it is highly unlikely that the people you lump into that group is less of a fan than most here and they are much less obnoxious and much less blinded by their views than the homers.
Just think the some people hate everything so that's why they don't like this view is tired, overstated and pretty much a useless comment.

We don't know if he would of been a horrible fit or not. Tanguay-Richards-Iginla could of been lights out, or it could of flopped. We will never know

We know this team was a lot more than one player away from being competitive, we know this team was a lot more than one good line away from being competitive, we know that never (even during the Cup run) has Richards been good enough to elevate a team on his own and we know that Richards had a poor year playing with a much more talented team in NY.
Sure it is possible that he somehow returned to his peak by coming here (which is highly doubtful) but even if he did we are left with a 9-11th place team, a mid-first draft pick and a team going forward with little chance to make the play-offs, little in terms of youth coming up and a lot of bad, long term money deals on the books.
