Memo to Pat Quinn:
Thank you for proving me wrong. This year, you actually made a concerted effort to better our hockey team at the trade deadline. Already a very good team, the addition of Owen Nolan is sure to benefit us during a long playoff run. Nolan can do it all. He can score goals, block shots, punish defenders... Glen Wesley was another good pick up. He's a solid defenseman who isn't prone to the mistakes I see Aki Berg and Jyrki Lumme making on a nightly basis. Furthermore, he only cost us a draft pick.
Today, you added some defense insurance in veteran Phil Housley and brought back my favourite Leaf of all time, Doug Gilmour. Gilmour may be a little slower and no longer the scoring machine of the early 90s, but he's still Gilmour with more heart and passion than anyone in the league. He'll be a definite asset both on the ice and in the dressing room. Did you read my blog below?
Thanks again. Today more than ever I'm confident we can finally bring back the Stanley Cup to my sweet home Toronto. You made four positive moves, and only sacrificed one player from our active roster. Stanley! Stanley! Stanley!
