in other words, "Get the **** out of here Vitaly".

"Personal reasons" my butt. This is financial reasons. And Lou looks like he is posing for a KGB photo op in front of the Kremlin here.

This move is all about the money pure and simple. Thats how Lou runs things. He got his use out of him and now he's gone.

That's not Lou Lamoriello! That's Mikhail Gorbachev! He just had his Red Russia tatoo removed from his forehead!

I think he looks more like Lenin. Amazingly spry at that.

I was gonna go with Dick Cheney's Russian half-brother. Put some glasses on him, you couldn't tell the difference. Lenin had a goatee.

Yeah, I forgot about that part LOL. Maybe the formaldehyde dissolved it.

Maybe later in life Lenin is who you were talking about. When he was excommunicated from the Soviet Union, he shaved his goatee and came back to once again take over.

vitaly was a part timer for the devs last year anyway...

not sure why some of you doubt the "personal reasons"

hmm, a russian player wants to play in russia....how suspicious.

What other option does he have? Work at Burger King?

He could move to Canada and work at Tim Horton's. Or Swiss Chalet.

May I have a complementary Poutain with those?

Seabird: Can i order a large double-double. Hold the spit.
Vishnevski: would you like a face wash with that sir?
Seabord: Yes,preferrably with game worn sweaty gloves.
Vishnevski: The game worn gloves will cost you extra

LOL.

Seabird...tell him you don't have any large cups. That's what the Timmy's in his nabourhood does when they see him coming...I don't think he's been getting the hint though...

Lou is clearly half-Italian mafia/ half Russia mob. But he's only a mid-level guy. Not a made man. One wrong move and he'll be taking a dive into the East River wearing a pair of cement boots. If he's lucky they'll give him a final meal consistig of a bowl of borscht following by a plate of spaghetti ending with a glass of Chianti and three shots of vodka to wash it all down and dull the pain.

Hmmmmmmmm..... Chunky soup and beer. Borscht and spaghetti. Chianti and vodka. A man of contrasting tastes you are, Yoda.

As for Lou, let's hope he doesn't get an invitation to Umberto's in Little Italy. He can provide his own red sauce for the clams......

Yoda,

What happened to your post on the previoous ( Sakic ) thread? You were cut off. Too much to drink???? Things were getting a bit hairy there.......whatever happened to WT anyway??????

Myopic midget.......
