They were a decent team the first year after the lockout. After that they sucked - first round knockouts every year until they didn’t make it in year 5. Sure they made the POs but that’s because Sutter kept spending on late 20s veterans. You think brining in Tony Amonte, Langkow, Darren McCarty, Kristian Huselius, Cale Hulse and Byron Ritchie was the way to go? Getting rid of Conroy, Lydman, Neimenen, Gelinas and Clark was smart?
