from Rory Boylen of The Hockey News,
The fan bases of Philadelphia, Toronto and Montreal are all optimistic their teams will hit the ice an improved entity this October.
When a pure softy with great hands and zero toughness – Kyle Wellwood – gets roughly the same contract worth of a guy with tremendous toughness and zero hands (Brashear) the hockey world is in a good place.
Everything should be done with moderation and too much of one or the other would upset a balance that has teetered in the NHL since the first expansion in 1967.
For the bubble-wrap lobby out there, hear this: Big, bad, grind-it-out hockey is here to stay, no matter which team or style wins it all in 2010.
