Spezza bandwagon is back on the rails. Please! Spezza IS part of the solution, for sure. At the deadline, when contending teams on the bubble need one last piece to go for it, then they will offer the moon for this guy. And there lies the solution.

Again, there is no dispute that Spezza is a remarkable player. I have never said differently. I am sure he'll light it up with another team

good point...

if the return is amazing...then I am all ears...however...if the return is poor...then he is to stay...

Where did you get this quote about 9 players from? I don't think I have heard that yet.

He's a tremendously talented player but he has to do the other things to be a leader in those parts of the game for that team to move forward.
