Around SBN: Starting PG: Ridnour or Sessions? Bar-right-arrows



Dougie Fresh, is getting stale

Well, the past several days/weeks/months have been fueling my frustration with the management of this team.  We just let whom I believe was our best player go because we didn't want to pay him $5M/year!  If anyone thinks Brunette replaces Rolston, they need to enter rehab!  I have been a season ticket holder since day 1 and I am getting REALLY frustrated with Risbrough's performance.  This team has shown no motivation to win other than the Johnson, Parrish, Demitra move.  Gee, Doug had no issue paying Johnson this kind of money after a poor season in the hopes that he would regain his offensive product and yet we are willing to let a proven leader and performer go bye bye for the same level of money.  How do you not pay Rolston when you know there is no one on the market that can replace his all around ability and contribution.  It is getting really hard writing the check for next years tickets with the hope that this team will truly care about putting the talent that is required to win on the ice! 

The only way I am happy now is if we sign Hossa and he isn't coming here because his slovak buddies told him Jaques style will kill his numbers.  Get ready for Marian to be gone in two!

You are riding on the belief that all the hockey fans in MN won't stop buying tickets but I beleive the Stars proved they will if you don't give hope of an ability to do something in the post season.

Worried about the wrong player

You worry about Rolston, meh. He was going to demand way too much money, just because of the thin free agent market. The Fridge is the player that will tough to replace. I scoffed at the move to pick up Fedoruk, but he soon won me over big time. Rolston never wanted to stay and to do so would have cost the Wild too much. Now we just have to worry about Butch, and Gabby if he wants to stay and if not I say, Meh, again He is a star, but not a SuperStar in this league, if he wants that kind of money, let someone else pay him too.
