This team has no talent yet. I think it was a mistake not sending Monahan back to juniors or to the WJHC. Stempniak is a Bouma clone right now, works hard has no offensive touch and no puck control. Stajan almost invisible despite hard work ethic. Giordano is a damn fine defenseman, but I'm worried the local media is building him up to be something he's not. Gio is a 3rd or 4th defenseman. Goaltending is ok in my opinion. Team misses a stud defenseman, I don't care what people say, letting Phaneuf go was a mistake. Not enough playmakers, we rely on only Hudler to make plays since Burke sent Baertchi down. That's all I got... can't wait til the draft!
