Ehh...yeah, but Thornton was just as deserving...he turned around San Jose in half a season...

UHL fan, myself. GO FORT WAYNE KOMETS!!!

In the NHL, I'm a Nashville fan...I don't think we got anyone too special, though...at least from what I observed.

The problem with Jagr is that he's such a beeyitch. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crying.gif.ec0ebefe590df0251476573bc49e46d8.gif I think the last time that guy checked anyone hard Youngblood was #1 at the box office...er...somewhere.

Btw, I'm loving the new rules and the pace of the game now. It does allow the best players to play. Hence, Jagr racking up the points. The playoffs this year were awesome. I'd love to road trip to Edmonton just to see a game. Every time they sang the Canadian National Anthem the hairs on my arms stood up. I'm going to start a new thread...destination sporting events.

It had to be Thornton. Not only did he entirely resurrect a franchise, making them into a contender, he also nearly singlehandedly createda 50 goal scorer, Jonathan Cheechoo.

Look at the team and Cheechoo's numbers before and after Thornton and there's no comparison. Guy wins the scoring title with 96 assists, turns an also-ran into a Cup contender and has his linemate win the Richard trophy? You're an idiot or a Rangers fan if you pick Jagr. Or are those two the same things?

I cannot believe Vancouver traded Bertuzi. They did need a new tender tho...

Did you see the dis-belief on Jagr's face when they said Thornton's name. Personally I'm just glad the right person won rookie of the year. I was expecting something like the LeBron and Carmelo deal where Carmelo actually did better that year (I think) yet LeBron won cause of the hype. So I was expecting for Crosby to win. Crosby didn't perform to my expectations this year, i was expectin atleast 140. He looks like he's one of those club players who there families are filthy rich so they have all the best equipment. I hated those kids.

What are you talking about? Crosby is an absolute freak. There's more to being a phenom than racking up points. His play is on another level, his heads up understanding of the game at the age of 18 is something I haven't seen in a very long time. He'll change the game barring any career threatening injuries.
