I didn't bother reading through all the pages of replies, so all I have to say is this: You have to give credit to Roy today. Does it erase all doubts? No. Does it make the trade look THAT much better? No. Hell, the guy didn't even score, but he had some nice grabs and made plays.
The deal is done. At this point a solid contributor on a week in week out basis is better than what we've gotten. Roy stepped up and made some plays this week. You won't catch me *****ing about that.
If Roy can continue to do that on a weekly basis I will hate the trade a lot less. I won't like it more, but I'll certainly hate it less.
