Why were you negative about bringing in Anderson? What you see is what Anderson has always brought through his Q career. Don't forget he came in with a Tremendous Recomendation from....Bois !

Hal your bang on, I was very negative on bringing in Anderson, boy was I wrong. He is a great player and his work ethic is bar none. Big win tonight and a much deserved 2 points You weren't alone but might be the only one to admit it lol Has there ever been a better........"Return on Investment"..........than Steven Anderson ? Could a case be made for Nicolas Roy? Loik Leveille is out scoring him, not to mention Dubois.

Hey now from me also damnit! You probably never noticed it though because you were too busy stomping around and drooling all over yourself while repeatedly yelling "SPRONG" in random frequent intervals.

Over the long haul you probably see why he ended up in the situation he did. Luckily as a bottom team with an open spot we could afford to take him for nothing. Trades like Fergus are the real value trades. 50 goals on a contender for a 2nd rounder.

Getting someone who plays in your top 6 .....does all the little things......and gives a great effort always .....for a 12th ? Anyway you cut it .......that's value ....circumstance or not !

Yes but only value you get as a non-contender at the bottom of the standings with the ability to add the best available 20 at a time of year where teams cant demand anything for their extra 20's. Hard to compare it to say a Fergus trade for that reason. Not trying to take away from his contribution at all but it's not like we stole him from a team at 18 or 19 like some other players we've found in the past. What would we consider Pardy's price in the Halifax trade?

Was Fergus the only Eagle to reach the 50 goal plateau?
I just don't feel like going back through every season via hockeydb lol.

You guys got Anderson for a 12th for two reasons
He was acquired for a 12th by VD to begin with
and he had already left the Foreurs so they just wanted to recoup their original cost
and while he was a solid addition and i did recommend him.. i also recommended Hinds who has also been a terrific addition for you guys
