I'm always intrigued with the "guys you win with" discussions. Loubardias spent the better part of 2 years talking about (and almost choking up) about how Kris Russell is a guy you win with, but there's no winning on his NHL resume. On the flip side, most, if not all winning teams have more than a few guys that would be considered "guys you don't really win with."
