"Kovaa" peliä Bostonissa:
Mike O’Connell on the trade: “There’s still 40 points out there with 20 games left, so we still want to give ourselves a chance to make the playoffs, which we did. … Hopefully with the subtraction of Samsonov and the addition of Reasoner and Czerkawski and Stastny we’re as strong a team or even stronger going forward. That’s what I was trying to accomplish going into this. Whether we did or not, who knows?”
Ja pelaajien mielipidettä:
Glen Murray on the trade: “It’s tough. We’re losing a great teammate and a guy that really helped us out a lot in Sammy. … He was one of our big offensive threats and we’re having trouble scoring goals so it’s probably going to hurt the team.”
Hal Gill on Samsonov: “Obviously, he’s the kind of guy that’s a game-breaker,” said Gill of Samsonov. “He’s a lot of fun to watch. … I’m sure he’ll do well. You put him on the fast ice out there (in Edmonton) and I’m sure he’ll dance.”
Moc tekee parhaansa huonontaakseen joukkuetta. Parhaat pois ja tilalle keskinkertaista materiaalia. Materiaali ehkä levenee, mutta kärkiosaamista joukkueessa ei enää ole. Nyt tapellaan viimeisestä pleijaripaikasta ja vaikka sinne pääsisikin on edessä nopea tippuminen. Siis ihan uskomattoman paska kausi. Big Joe ja Sammy ovat hintana tästä ilosta.
