1 Skoula will be paid more than Zanon's $1.93 million, that's how. The good part about having Zanon instead of Skoula is that Zanon actually has a personality. |

1 I could care less about his personality but the big differences are that Zanon blocks shots and has a good feel on where to position himself on the ice. Lemaire was a great coach to start up the franchise but his obsession with Skoula really hindered this team the last two seasons. Skoula wouldn't even be successful in the WCHA. He's a big, slow, bumbling idiot. |

1 Point was that if everything else is equal, as it kind of is when you compare Zanon to Skoula, I'd rather have the guy who can at least do an interview and actually look like he's enjoying it and it's not causing him pain. Every team needs its grunts and Zanon is a grunt. But he'll be a happy grunt who doesn't have the periodic brain farts that Skoula would have from time to time. Skoula played a lot better last season but he was/is one of Lemaire's guys and might not fit in real well in the new system. |

Zanon makes sense and has hockey sense. SKoula was over paid, and for what a few years of "where the bleap was Skoula on that play.. OH there he is Knitting a sweater when he should have been blocking shots!!!"

Agree w/ Zanon over Skoula. Won't miss Marty's patented "Soft 2nd Into The Corner" move! Where'd he get that anyway? Some issue of Cosmopolitan on "How to drive the RiverRat Crazy"?

I'm going to miss the the classic "Let's Go Skoula" chants when he would be kicking the puck between his feet... I always love that one!

1 Good riddance to Skoula and Gaborik, my two least favorite players are gone. YEAH!!! Zanon is definitely a better replacement for Skoula. Then again any high school defenseman could be Skoula's replacement. |
