Foote walks

Defenseman Adam Foote, formerly of the Colorado Avalanche, received the best deal of the day, a three-year contract worth $4.6 million a year from the Columbus Blue Jackets. (USA Today)

Drag. I'm happy we're keeping Blake...but Adam has been a vital defensive pillar, and has been for years. Hell...back to the Quebec days. I hate to see him go. Especially to a team that doesn't really count...(sorry, Steve).

I'm all about my boy gettin' PAID, however. So, good for him.
