Hockey's Joke Of A Player Of The Year? Mike Smith

[ChiSportsFan17]

Here I thought it was just Vancouver and Detroit I didn't like. Now it's Phoenix. As a matter of fact, after how Phoenix played against Chicago, if the Coyotes had played the Red Wings, I would've cheered for the Red Wings.

Hating the Coyotes became much easier when they went into full-Canuck mode in the series against LA, both on the ice and in their post-game interviews.

Crawford's year was a bigger joke than Mike Smith's.

Just saying.

Says the guy with Hartford & Quebec in his sig. :lmao:

Point is? I would love to see Montreal-Quebec playoff series, Hartford vs. New York, Hartford vs. the Other New York, Hartford vs. New Jersey. I just like the Jets, and the Winnipeg Blu Bombers of the CFL.

I don't want Phoenix moved because they beat us, I would prefer they move for the better of the league, and because hockey simply isn't working there. I've been advocating this since before Atlanta moved... it has nothing to do with being beat.

uneducated hockey fans dont want him. They think Kaner is the ansewer at 2nd line center, in which he isnt.

Several people have given their reasons as to why they would not want Jokinen. I'd say Kane is easily better at the 2C position than Jokinen is. I think a couple people around here are overrating Jokinen and what he brings to the table at this point in his career.

Why can't it be that uneducated hockey fans want him?

kane is NOT a true 2c. Putting Kane there is just plain dumb. Do you honestly think he will get help from Bowman on that line with a real skilled/physical player? I dont. Leave him on the wing where he belongs.

Jokinen is a FA which is why myself and Icehog are high on him, he is a skilled physical player whch is what we need, and we wouldnt have to deal picks and players to obtain a 2c. Its more of a win situation by making this signing.

Says the mod of the forum. Heh.

Anyway ... wait, what the hell was being talked about in this thread? I can't even remember anymore.

Jokinen is not a physical player...he hardly utilizes his size like he should.

I think Jokinen is a 55 point player on a team like the Blackhawks. I think his foot speed has been going down and his two way game as well.

Also, I personally think that Jokinen will get overpaid because teams will think that he might have some of that Florida flash left in him, but that left al ong time ago. Hell, if we want to bring up age...he is only a year and a half younger than Doan as well.

I just don't think Jokinen is going to be the answer. At $3Mil...I go for it, but I see him getting well over $3mil and probably for more than 1 year as well.
