Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 3/1/2005, 3:33 am

after looking it up
berg was 1995
the forth round that year included the following guys:
alyn mccauley
sami kapanen
vesa toskala (the reason mikka kiprusoff was traded)
marc savard
radovan somik (he'll be good)
and michael handzus

and i looked at later rounds and lo and behold
kipper was drafted that year too (5th round)
danil markov was also drafted that year (9th)
some other good players too

Alyn McCauley is my favourite player and has been for 7 years now. I've become quite a big Sharks fan over the past couple years because of their high level of solid Canadian content (Marleau, Cheechoo, Stuart, Hannan, McLaren, Rathje) and because they showed that team chemistry and low payroll can equate to big success.

i agree with the post in that a low payroll with a good system and good team chemistry can lead to success AND exciting hockey

that and i really, really, really hate kyle mclaren and always will
i dont care if his hit on zednik was accidental or not
it was bad
anytime a player leaves on stretcher and has a neck brace on its bad
its even worse when it was the result of another players not so legal actions
(there never was any reason for him to raise his arms when hitting a guy who is slightly shorter than him if for no other reason then to really "send a message" which in this case lead to zednik not playing for the rest of the year due to a fractured jaw, concussion and fractured facial bones thanks to mclarens elwow to the face)

We used to play hockey in PE in middle school. It was one of the two sports that I didn't hate to play.

how could you get sick at the mention of great talent like AKI BERG!

unless you mean you feel sick because you wish so much that your team had picked him up

i don't think i'll go to watch him though...unless he's in a Leafs uniform and i somehow stumble upon free tickets or win the lottery.

laurel · Post by **laurel** » 3/7/2005, 8:27 pm

only $25 for tickets

reza · Post by **reza** » 3/7/2005, 8:30 pm

will he be wearing a Leafs jersey?

nelison · Post by **nelison** » 3/8/2005, 12:15 am

Does it really matter what jersey he's wearing? if anything I would think he'd play better in another team's jersey.
