First of all- the length of the Marian Hossa deal! 12 years, if someone asked me to commit myself to something for the next 12 years I would be hesitant and I try to stick with things. As opposed to Marian "If you don't win the Cup during my first year with the team, then I'm leaving" Hossa. However, I have decided I am going to start over with Hossa, all of the bad feelings that I had towards him will be wiped away. Do you remember how your teacher's blackboard was so nice and pretty in the morning because it had been cleaned overnight and all of the math problems and everything for the day before are gone and it is a new day. That's how Marian Hossa is for me now. To warrant me disliking him he must do something in Chicago that I don't like.
The reason why they signed Kris Versteeg in my opinion is because Tallon didn't want to go through the hearing and wanted to quietly make this QO snafu go away. He knew that someone in his office messed up and he didn't want it to become a bigger story than it already is. He was in a rush to get this whole thing over with and signed Kris and Cam quickly and for bigger money than he wanted to.
At this point I really think Tallon needs to be fired. He has made many questionable decisions and I believe it is time for a change. Many people will claim that he has drafted well but other than Kane and Toews who else that he has drafted been a stand-out. Plus the drafting of Kane and Toews was a pretty simple decision. He has messed up the whole salary cap and is going for the cup this year while completely ignoring goaltending which is the last position to ignore to win the cup. The way things look right now, it will be a miracle if ONE of Kane, Toews, Keith would be back after this season.
I am scared for the future of the franchise. They have gone so far, I would hate to see it end so soon.
