This is another one of my pet peeves. Alot of people here seem to think that if a guy is well travelled, it means that he can't be that good. False. In many cases, players move alot because they are good. Whether it be that one team outbids another in their FA period or that teams pick up certain guys for play-off runs.
The next time I hear someone post "yeah, he sucks, been with like 6 teams, no wonder nobody wants him" I am going to scream. That is 6 teams that wanted him. This is not always the case as some guys wear out their welcomes or need a change of scenery BUT in most cases-well travelled means much wanted.
Another pet peeve while I am at it. To the people who say that a player is better than other because "he has more cups" is out of their mind. Wendell Young is the only player to win the Stanley Cup, Calder Cup, Memorial Cup and whatever that ECHL cup is. Who, you say? Exactly.
