Quincey seems like he's done, but even a done Kyle Quincey is probably better than Bartkowski.

Can you imagine the hatred Bart would get if we actually traded Iginla for him?

Time for Tootoo to hang up the skates methinks.

All of this is likely true.

I thought Tootoo was done a couple years ago, didn't realize he was still playing.

Compared to the baller return we did get? The 3 players we got have a combined total of 38 NHL games, which, if you think about it, we probably would have exceeded that if we had kept Jarome for the full last year of his contract and we had lost him for nothing in free agency. Hanowski is playing in Germany, and Klimchuk has been falling off the depth chart ever since. Agostino is playing for the Bruins.... Errr, the Providence Bruins, that is. Honestly, if we would have just traded Iggy for Bart, it probably would have meant that we would have gotten rid of him by now, at least.

From all accounts, Klimchuk is having a good season in the minors, so I hope he gets a chance on the main roster.

But everything else, I agree with

I came to say the same thing. I thought he'd been bounced ages ago.

I guess if he isnt hurting people hes just not that noticeable.

Yea I'm not writing him off, and I hope he exceeds expectations, just like I do with all of our prospects. On CP's off season prospect ranking he was 15th, with 5 forwards infront of him including Dube, who is in the Dub this year. So expectations aren't all that high. He's having a decent year, hope he keeps chugging along, but in the end, that's what we got for Jarome Iginla?!?

The Minnesota Wild claimed defenceman Nate Prosser from the St. Louis Blues on Wednesday, one day after waiving.
Prosser, 31, appeared in one game with the Blues this season, failing to log a point against the Calgary Flames on Oct. 25. He had spent his entire career with the Wild before signing with the Blues in the summer.
Quincey and Jordin Tootoo of the Chicago Blackhawks both cleared waivers on Thursday and will be assigned to their respective AHL clubs.
