Re: Which NHL team has caused your school the most damage?
I think the most damage done to a school was the Islanders taking Okposo in the middle of the season, and then bad mouthing Minnesota for ruining their best prospect. Of course, it was all done to take the heat off of Snow's horrible job of running the Islanders, giving the fans something to talk about at the end of a failure season, and Okposo doesn't seem the worse for wear. Everything worked out great for everyone, except Minnesota. A competent GM would have signed Okposo before the season.XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX
The reason for the talent in the west? Because MN didn't rely on Canada.

We learned from the two incidents that The Islanders are never at fault for their scouting failures.**NOTE: The misleading post above was brought to you by Reynold's Wrap and American Steeples, makers of Crosses.

Re: Which NHL team has caused your school the most damage?
Id say the Hawks and Wings. Seems like quite a lot of Badgers have ended up on those 2 teams.
Instead of looking at it as NHL teams, "damaging" the UW hockey program, I look at it more as a testament to how good the UW is at churning out quality hockey players.A Badger living in Buckeye country.

So you're not entirely wrong, for that I apologize for jumping on you. From what I know Jamie Russell was not a happy camper as one would expect.

So to recap, it was Zabotel who couldn't make it past the NCAA academic clearinghouse. It was Hauswirth who decided he'd rather get paid (and to be fair, Russell knew that neither CPZ nor Hauswirth were likely to be four or even three year players).
