Around SBN: Off Tackle Empire interviews Rich Rodriguez

[UPDATE] What are the chances 25 teams pass on Brad Lukowich and Ryan Jones?

I would say slim, and none. Lukowich, with his two Stanley Cup rings, would be a decent depth defenseman pick-up. Ryan Jones, on the other hand, is just one of those Lombardi-type players (leader, former captain, gritty, blue-paint...). I would be surprised if Jones even gets past Edmonton. Of course, they are stupid, so anything's possible.

[UPDATE: but not that stupid. Oilers claimed Ryan Jones this morning.]

Brad Lukowich also placed on waivers. Another useful defenseman for anyone in need of blue line depth.

Lukowich is terrible.

If everybody DOESN’T pass on him they are stupid. 50% of AHL defencemen right now could do what he does better than he does it. He’s the epitome of “Below Replacement Level”.

I guess I didn't get the memo.

I thought he was non-crappy.

Wait till this year.

Well, to be fair,

I live in Vancouver and had the misfortune of watching him play on more than one occasion. He’s not good.

I guess the lesson here is:
you don’t have to be good to win a Stanley Cup.

So you’re saying that he’s better than Peter Harrold?? That’s a good start…

That's good,

but Harrold is still better…as much as it pains me. What I’m truly saying is, bring one of the guys up from Manchester. Hickey would be nice.
