Well he did say that he didn't think Newhook was getting traded earlier in the day and then went on and traded him so I say, yeah... it fits!
You can't FOOL US, CMAC !!!!

Not Great, Bob!
Draft Nyolausson at 27 to give MacFarland a pick. He'll bust and never make the team, but maybe we can trade him later. Trade 31 for Meloche and Greer, but at most draft Nouveaumeloche. Take the other pick and pick 37, and fleece some team with another Toews trade. And for the love of god don't re-sign #37.
Nice. You win the game since that's the reference I was thinking of. You get to make the FLA pick at 31 as a reward.

What I see alot with Montreal media is that Newhook didn't have opportunities with the Avs because we're so deep and that he was stuck in a bottom 6 role. That #2C spot was wide open for him just to be outplayed by JT2C. He had opportunities with Mikko and Mack but somehow plays died on his stick so it didn't work and I quite remember Mack being mad looking up when Newhook made a mistake.
It's like Kerfoot and the Leafs all over again.

If I'm not mistaken, he was actually a healthy scratch a couple of times.

This plus @Richard88 being Joe Sakic means we've had the last two Avs GMs on this little corner of the Internet. We're certainly privileged.

@henchman21 also said if it were him, he'd try to trade up to draft Oliver Moore <- 5'11" center
CMac confirmed.

Now either they trade Girard or fill all the holes on the roster with cheap, 2nd grade UFA's.

Ooof, I just finished an excursion on the Habs board and they are convinced that Newie is a speed demon.
Telling them it was not the case made them testy AF.
Have a look at the Newie contract thread and tell me if I went overboard. I thought I was straightforward and honest with them.

I won't disagree with that. And that crazy is fed by some of the worst media in the NHL: uninformed and docile to the org.

Apparently we are one of the worst boards because we don't sing the endless praise of Newie. It's sad really.
