Chisoxfn Posted July 18, 2003 Share Posted July 18, 2003 http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sp...-home-headlines Sounds like they are pretty close. I'm guessing a deal will be done in a week or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniKrush Posted July 18, 2003 Share Posted July 18, 2003 Mike Smith has been f***ing around with Ruutu too long Of the top 10 players in his draft, 8 received the normal contract with performance bonuses. Ruutu did not...although he's supposed to be the best player out of that draft. Just makes no sense at all. It has pissed off Hawks fans like myself as much as letting a superstar walk. This guy is gonna be special - i can only hope he's wearing a Hawks sweater for his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BridgeportHeather Posted July 19, 2003 Share Posted July 19, 2003 He's the next Forsberg, Yserman, you name it! It sucks how bad Smithov gave him the runaround. Let's see how long it takes before they sign the deal though. Knowing how Smithov operates, it could be next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted July 19, 2003 Share Posted July 19, 2003 That would be a nice START, but Ruutu alone will not help. The Slackoffs will NOT sign the necessary number of key players needed to seriously compete for anything. They really need to blow up the or-gan-I-za-tion and start over.
