+1 I am not exactly sure where this Poll is going, but The Chicago Blackhawks have the coolest uniform in sports period, White or Red, and hopefully they will become a great team again to match those awesome Uni's
The sticks are longer tho creating more torque when sticken against something.
That sounds like a good piece of scientific evidence, I wonder if its true.
+1 I'm thinking if I get challenged to a duel and these are the weapons available- I'm going with the old Lousiville Slugger. wait- no. guess I'd probably run for my life.
And, much like the Yankees, they buy championships.
+1 I've already argued this before somewhere else, so I'm not going to do it in full scale again. Ken Holland drafts and trades people. They do not merely go out and sign an all star team. Yzerman, Lidstrom, Datsyuk, Zetterberg, Franzen (just to name a few were all drafted). And guys like Datsyuk and Zetterberg were picked up in the 6th and 7th round. Guys like Hull, Hasek and Robitaille(sp?) were just icing on the cake, much of what Hossa may become.

When future HOFers are "icing on the cake", then yes, you buy championships. Thanks for proving my point for me.

+1 So aquiring a few players through free-agency is BUYING championships? The Red Sox DEFINETELY have never done that. All of their players were drafted and developed by the Sox organiziation right?

If you want to put it that way, just don't compare them to the yankees. Every team needs a player or two to get them over the hump, thats what free agency is for. If I remember correctly your Red Sox payed $52 million just to talk to Daisuke, then signed him for another outrageous amount. JD Drew was another free agency acquisition. That's about as many free agent signings as Detroit makes a year. The Yankees try to build a team of all stars from free agency alone...they have no core team already.
