Well, I was pretty much listing players who did infinitely better once they left NYR or before they got there. Amonte has publicly blamed Mike Keenan for stifling him. That only goes so far in my book though.

Well, Amonte never back checked in New York either...he thought offense only.  And both Keenan and Smith believed they could not win a  Cup with Amonte when they needed two way players like Noonan and Matteau.  And MacTavish.

I agreed.  Now Tony plays a much more well rounded game.

Keenan?  Hah!  Amonte is just one of many who hated playing for him...and made similar comments after they no longer did.  Just ask the Blues players about the difference between Keenan and Joel Quennville.

I heard it first hand from one in a very funny way.

Good luck to Cornell Alumnus Kent Manderville with his new NHL team.

Oh, no need to convince me that Keenan's a raging ass. I just hate rampant buck-passing.
