Gabby should be a player that benefits immensely because of the new rules.:0pouce:

That's what we're hoping!
Everyone has said how Lemaire is going to have trouble adapting to the new rulse, have trouble generating offense, etc, but I think they've forgotten that he always has his teams playing great team hockey. Even when the old rules were in place, we weren't good because we had Gabby going for 90 points per year, it was because we had guys like Antti Laaksonen, Andrew Brunette, Pascal Dupuis, Jim Dowd, etc. contributing. One thing I love about the Wild is that they play the team game, and everyone contributes in the system. We're not a top offensive team, but we've got enough talent and scoring ability that because we play smart and organized, we're able to get results. :0pouce:
