yeah, its funny cause during Monny's draft year, i was hoping for Lindholm, but only by a hair cause i thought he had a bit more offensive abiltiy... I was thrilled with Monny too though.
When the trade came through, and Lindholm was part of the deal, i was excited because i though Lindholm was a better all around player and had enough offense to replace ferland...didn't think he's be this good offensively though
Dougie, there was so much smoke around him, i figured that something was up for sure... getting Hanifin, a kid 4 years younger that had the same number of points as Hamilton did in his first 3 years, and was 4 years younger but who looked to be better in his own end seemed like a win.
i was disappointed in losing Fox, but after Tre tried hard to sign him in the offseason and he didn't, it seemed like there was a definite chance to lose him for nothing anyways...
