Wow, I can’t believe there could be any discussion over who should wear the C in Minnesota.

Burns, Burns, Burns.

I am a Vancouver fan and just salivate watching the intensity that guy plays with. Reminds me of Ed Jovanovski when he was young and universally feared.

Forget the homegrown MN talent…just field a roster that gives us a chance to win playoff games past the first round…WHO CARES WHERE THEY COME FROM! If you want to watch MN talent go to the state high school hockey tournament.

It is hard to say that the Wild cannot see the state of hockey to have no nhl-caliber talent. I just think the wild brass have lost some patience in terms of development.

Face it, we are tired of dismal seasons being knocked out of the first rounds. The GM just wants to see results as much as we do. But as a GM he has to make those decisions to buy out.

Parrish is a great plyer but it seems he did not mesh with the Lemaire system. He is a very offensive foward and Lemaire just did not agree with him.

I just think that GM only goes to foreign players for two reasons:

1. Their systems of junoir play offers better transition into the pros. Most players out of college have take time in the AHL when they get out.

2. They start cheap. Most US players come at a cost. The NHL is our market and they now what they can get. A good amount of foreign players you can be a little lower in terms of contracts.
