So true.

I flipped a little when I first saw that Gionta made 1 million more per year than Havlat, but then I reminded myself of the direction the team took in terms of player origins. We definitely went NA and while I don't doubt a guy like Havlat can be a great leader, Gainey had a plan and stuck to it and I'm impressed right now by the guys he brought in, if only personality-wise.
