One-Hit Wonders

Recommended Posts

One of the biggest of them all, Samsonov.

You're right, a guy who tops the 20 goal mark in 4 of his first 5 seasons in the league is definitely a one-hit wonder.

I'm from Ohio and have FSN Ohio and they talk him up so much and make him out to be a player that is the greatest they have ever seen and it pisses me off.....and i hate the CBJ cause I think Columbus was and is one of the worst choices for a NHL hockey to go...sorry bout that rant but I hate CBJ hockey soo much I wish they would fold and move somewhere else like a Canadian city that loves hockey and deserves to have a team there

Yeah, that state of Ohio has no business with a pro team. I can't believe that they let Ohio State and Miami of Ohio even have teams.

You cannot compare NHL teams to college teams in terms of having a team or not....Ohio State has had a team since the 1960's and Miami has had a team since sometime in the 90's just because a University in Ohio can field a hockey team does not mean that a state or area can field an NHL team, those are TWO totally different markets....I was simply stating the fact that there were and are far better places for a team to be situated other than Columbus, Ohio....For the first couple years attendance was in the in the top 15 in attendance only to break into the top 10 once at 8th....and since then they have been in the lower half of attendance and are sitting at 28th this season, once the spectacle of pro hockey wore off then we are going to see what happened to Nashville are we not and this team hasn't even had a playoff berth or even been in contention for the Cup and it doesn't look like they will be going to the playoffs this season or for that matter even next season....

Punctuation is your friend. I won't even bother trying to read this.

If a defense only needs to worry about one guy they can target him. If a football team can run the ball but have Trent Dilfer as QB, you know you can play run the whole time. You add another REAL threat on his line and you'll see how good he is. He's not an elite player but he's better than most people give him credit for.

After having suffered through however many years of Dilfer in Tampa, I cracked a big smile when I read this :D

I'd like Brian Gionta for $800, Alex. He came out of nowhere to post 48 goals in 2005-06 but has never topped 25 goals in any other season. BTW, has anyone named Jordan Leopold yet? 33 pts in 2003, with 6 PPG, and he hasn't been healthy for more than three weeks at a time since then.

Well to complete the crossover thread, the Bucs traded for Griese. That gives them what, 12 QBs on the roster?

I think labeling dopita a one hit wonder is a bit much

they buried him on the 3rd and 4th lines playing with shit linemates and he STILL put up pretty decent points. and he had a 4?5? goal game, i cant remember.

philly screwed him.

Dopita had no desire to play in the NHL. It took until the third team had his rights before he even agreed to cross the pond to play in North America.

What ever happened to Bill Muckalt? Did he get hurt or something?

Played a year or two in the AHL I believe, then dropped off the face of the earth.

Todd Bergen (sp?) played for the flyers in 85. Was a great defenseman, then as legend has it... the training camp ( the year pelle lindbergh died) he was scheduled to show up and just never did, apparently he went to play pro golf.
