By Bryan Reynolds -
I ask for positives, and Russo gives me this:
So simply because they ask for young players automatically means it is the wrong deal? I really do not follow the logic. While I agree with Risebrough's logic in the story of not trading away his first round pick (and only pick with any meaning), I do not understand what it is he hoped other GMs would want.
The story reports that Risebrough continued his hunt of Oli Jokinen. Did Reisebrough believe that Phoenix would want Veilliux, Bergeron, or Skoula for a Jokinen caliber player? What else do the Wild have to offer except young players or picks? The answer, of course, is nothing.
The way I read the article, the clubhouse is not over flowing with confidence in the stretch run, and the lack of help at the deadline.
Is it just me, or does Belanger sound like a guy who wants out of this place more and more every day?
Still looking for that positive.
