Gill is one of my favourite players ever, we had him in Finland during lockdown, 31 2+8=10. And talk about a team player :)
Its nice to see a pro come here and simply do his job, work his arse off every single night, cant say the same about Avery and Madden, talk about lack of motivation.

:wtf:
Avery works (and yaps) his arse off every night. He's definitely more than motivated to play game in and game out.

2004-05 Pelicans FNL 2 3+0=3
Gill came to Finland the same day if i remember correctly, and both were supposed to play the whole season. Avery left after three games, went back to The US and made some devastating whining about how sucky our, my league is. I know hes good at what he does, but i cant forgive him for that, ever. :p

Christian Ruuttu
Olli Jokinen
Jarno Kultanen

Just watched the Stars - Hawks game and Richards was on Fire!! And Nick scoring his first hat-trick, Morrows fight in the end. This is was probably one of the best games i've seen all season. :)

Latendresse is on the 4th line with the rest of the French Canadians on the Habs' roster ;) He's ok, but sometimes very lazy with his skating.
I respect Koivu very much, but I personally think he's over rated and always has been. He has never been that franchise player that everybody wanted him to be. That said, he does have a presence in the locker room and is a good captain.

I've always respected Koivu more for his leadership rather than his technical abilities, but gotta admit, he's got quite an eye for the game. :)

Jack Johnson's hit on Ryan Smyth.
The hit was pretty bad....but I think this was a little cleaner than some of the other sensationalized hits this season. If hes not bumped at that particular spot of the rink, it's a non issue.
