> Co-workers of mine tell me Ron Anderson finds one upperclassmen a year to > cut as an example, and this year's model happened to be Claudio. Oh, come on! You know that's got to be a load of crap. No one in his right mind would cut a valuable player. Ron Anderson doesn't have a mean bone in his body anyway (I'm not saying this is good, BTW :-) Have your co-workers come up with a list. They may be right. Of the top of my head I can think of Ziggy Marszalek, maybe. He was certainly more valuable than guys like Feeley, Hirsch, Duggan, Sapienza, and Sweeney. I don't know if Ron booted him or he quit, though. As an interesting aside, consider that bottom 5 on the roster. Compare that with this year's bottom 5 (IMHO): Feeley, White, Porter, Krauss (C), Rodrigues. I'd say that's a lot better than last year. Ironically, I spoke with Claudio before the season and mentioned that guys like Feeley must be nervous given the quality of the recruiting class. > I found him to be undisciplined Like many others, I think he thought he was better than he was. Don't forget--he has the added preasure of having a brother in the NHL. Cheers, rand -- Rand P.
