It's worth bringing up on the night his jersey is retired in Colorado, that his presence had a distinctly negative effect on another franchise that he only wished to use as a bargaining chip, but was forced to cast his lot with when Colorado did not fall for his bluff. He never wanted to be here, he just wanted to use Doug MacLean. It just didn't work out for him. <br /><br />I respect, in fact I celebrate, your grouchiness. But if we ignore our history we are condemned to repeat it. I, for one, have no interest in going there, thanks. I'd like to see this franchise move on. Ignoring our past won't get us there.<br /><br />Thanks for taking the time to comment.Galloshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06151870407426712857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5796383459721793585.post-18060350623284201062013-11-02T17:12:49.331-04:002013-11-02T17:12:49.331-04:00Can you get past the Foote thing, already? It'...Can you get past the Foote thing, already? It's history and, as you noted, only two players remain from that team. I guaran-damn-tee you no one if the jackets locker room gives a sh*t about Adam Foote and, frankly, I'm tired of your obsession.The Old Grouchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01235393209892391481noreply@blogger.com
