Ha....There is a lot of posturing going on right now.

Maz on WXYT says they are chasing a story, and that Shanny may be signing a contract with Detroit at this very moment. Somehow this info would be coming out of Montreal...how this info would surface in Montreal first, I have no idea.

Yeah, because Buffalo would be "settling" for arguably the best penalty killer in the game.

Agreed, this is absurd.

Yeah, maybe just because the team has "Wings" in their name, the sweater could have a really cool biplane type of logo. I agree Muse, this should be for consideration of the primary jersey.

This post isn't even worth the words I am typing right.....ahhh forget it.

I guess so.

Not sure if it was Canadian or U.S., but it was a dollar and future considerations.

He was actually born a Winnepeg Jet.

I think the enforcer that will be playing the fourth line is going to have the name Robin Big Snake.

I am not impressed with this signing, but it was probably that last cheap defenseman that we needed. I've heard this joke before on another message board: There is no "D" in Delmore.

I was at that game and here is a clip of Datsyuk owning Roloson after tipping the dump to himself out of mid air... http://boss.streamos.com/wmedia/wild/wmedi...rd_11_22_03.wvx

I wonder why the invite to training camp? Looks like he can, and will, make Grand Rapids, maybe this is one of those good deals Holland is looking for to get tougher?

Yes, at some point he can. He has talent, he's not just an enforcer. He was very impressive when he went to camp with the Hartford Wolf Pack (AHL team of NY Rangers). He's still very young, and the problem he's encountered has been his maturity at times, but he's a fireball and has been very impressive whereever he's been. I have no doubt he'll stick around if he has a good camp, Grand Rapids wants to field a tougher team and right now, they just have Amadio signed, it makes sense to get a guy like Big Snake. I wonder if he is bound to play in Rockford this year? If he does well at camp, He could end up in Grand Rapids, and from there, who knows? Is it possible this kid could play on a fourth line in the NHL?

Here is a stats page on this kid... http://www.ontariohockeyleague.com/stats/p...yer.php?id=4070
