Funny the writer looks to Metro and says we haven't replaced a guy who couldn't get an NHL contract, but then goes on to say Halpern is old and declining? Weird....

To be fair, I know for a fact that Metro was talking with the Blackhawks for a one year deal around 700,000. I don't know whether or not the deal was 2 way. I imagine it was, but even if it wasn't, can you blame him for taking the garanteed 1,000,000+ deal in Switzerland (not to mention all the perks like his and hers BMWs, free private schooling for kids, free housing).

Wow if that's really what the perks are, AND to be able to live in Europe for a year, I can't say I blame him in the slightest.
