The article fails to address that the playoff format was in place before Durocher made all those deals...it's not a "draw". I'm sure they could have lost in the 1st rd without Lagace and Legault.

I'm sure they could have lost in the 1st rd without Lagace and Legault. you are right , there was no short straw, durocher was not blind going into this........the trade for legault makes sense as ward was damaged beyond repair but the legace move??..........no matter what the real problem on the team is not lack of talent this year or any year...........the eagles always seem to find a way of getting good players.........but coaching?? this eagles team was not in shape for the playoffs and how much respect do you get when you constantly juggles lines like he does..........slaney said it last year'' i would like to thank my linemates , if I knew who they were"..........the eagles had NO CHEMISTRY in moncton, they hit a lot, and I respect that but come the third period......DONE The article from the hearld is true, we will have something to work with next year, but imagine what we would have had we sold ?? However that is not what I have a problem with, guys like Luke Adam sucking wind in the playoffs, and some of the thoughtless moves Durocher has made creates a lot of bad feelings. |

Polov as usual misses the whole point of what could have been instead of what is the situation, Willie considers himself an authority while most consider him a non reporter, Oh ! Willie the sky is going to fall in Cape Breton shortly, then what will you say ?

Impact overagers Horyl and MacDougall?
More draft picks then people realize? Our 1st pick is Quebec's 3rd rounder....sure we have multiple 4th's and 5th's but no team in this league is properly rebuilding with just mid round draft picks. Our guys we sent back to midget were also later round picks expect for Jodoin.
We're currently scared to play Woodworth and Shaw out of fear their next shift will end our playoffs but we're supposed to expect them to be leaders next year?
BTW, who are we trading to rebuild? I know we might get a good 20 back, but almost every contender who loads up like we did has a key piece to bring back and trade to further along the rebuilding phase.....right now we lack that thanks to the way this team was built.
We know we'll be lower half next year, likely lower 5 imo, but what's there to develop into another contender? Right now Ellis and Cuzner are our only proven players under 18, the rest haven't seen enough ice time to judge whether they can help in the future let along expect them to help next year.
We're a mediocre 2010 draft away from missing the playoffs next year, i'd say that'd amount to sky falling considering we've never missed....and don't even get a playoff run for our troubles.

Is somebody going to rap Palov's knuckles for mentioning Roy headed to Lewiston before it actually happens ?

Going back to what you said before JB, what if they just kept the Lewiston young d and didnt trade him off to chi for lagace.. So all we can hope for now is lagace to return and get a nice return for him..
Other then that Macdougall is a guy a contender would want. Brodeur too.
Still no matter what, its not enough time to rebuild for 2012.. What about the euro draft?

Still no matter what, its not enough time to rebuild for 2012.. What about the euro draft? I don't see any contenders beating down our door for a 40 point forward, even if he is 6'5" and can win faceoffs. Maybe a mid-tiered contender needing multiple 20's but no way a top team makes him the missing piece of their puzzle. And personally I think we want Lagace to NOT come back. Why you ask? He comes back and we have to send another 1st round pick to Chicoutimi. Would you rather our own 2011 1st round, or the chance someone will give up that type of value for Lagace after what we've seen these last 3 months? I'll keep the 1st, thanks. |

Who will be our overages next year? Jb, insight? Right now they'd be Horyl, MacDougall and Bourgois. Adam, Lagace, Brodeur will have all pro options to start the year at least. Bernard should not be in the mix, but that's just me....no need of a 20yo goon...time to groom a younger guy. |

Wow didn't realize we would send another 1st. Good point JB. I really like Macdougall's game though. He was a big part of those PK's. I know he is 20 and takes up a 3 spot, he would be a great assest. His value would probably be double at 19...

Lagace will have an offer but it will ECHL. |
