The jersey ad still sucks

Ahh, the HFBoard strawman. At what point did I say Trochek was coming to Detroit? You're having reading comprehension issues today, I said Trochek is the better player.
Copp is an issue, nobody said he's the only issue. this team would probably have made the playoffs had Stevie signed a legit 2C instead of Copp/Compher. Those losses during DBoss' absence really hurt.
Besides, I wanted Horvat, not Trochek. Not only is Horvat better than Copp, NYI wouldn't be in a playoff spot without him.
And we're right back where we started. Like which 2C that would've come to Detroit? It comes back to the myth that Yzerman thinks Copp was some great 2C.
And it's highly unlikely Yzerman was handing out an 8 year deal to Horvat, assuming he could even get him here via trade.
There's no way to actually defend Copp's contract so everyone's resorting to strawman arguments and personal attacks.
Copp's contract sucks, end of story.
Funny you refute a strawman with a strawman.
If you look through people's posts who aren't railing against Copp, most aren't talking about his contract because it isn't that big of a deal. Yes he's overpaid. And? It's the same point you've been making all season and has little to do with his actual performance. Copp is performing about as expected.
But enjoy tilting at Copp windmills! "That AAV! Arrrgh!! We should've gotten a real 2C!"
