Rwcrazy 4 Report post Posted May 11, 2007 Just wondering if Norton would have been a D-man the Wings should have pulled up from GR? Any ideas?? Rwcrazy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daniel1 32 Report post Posted May 11, 2007 Norton's a goon. Don't call him up unless the other team misplaces their punching bag and wants to borrow one. Meech, Ericsson and probably even Kindl are all better D-men than "Hey Norrrrrton." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CMatt89 63 Report post Posted May 11, 2007 For Size and physical play I wouldn't mind. But, I think Meech will get the next opportunity. The chemistry didn't work, no. He was out of his element playing here. But, we are forgetting he's a defensman who was playing 4th line forward. Was anyone expecting him to light it up?

JeeSpot82 10 Report post Posted May 11, 2007 Brad Norton sucked donkey nard - I was thrilled to see his exit and Val Filppula's entrance at the beginning of the season. Hopefully Bertuzzi is willing to drop the gloves (if necessary), because Anaheim led the league in fighting majors and they may get wiley. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kp-Wings 3 Report post Posted May 11, 2007 Norton was brutal. Thank God the Wings got rid of him when they did. For being a goon, he couldn't even win any fights. He'd have a hard time making it in the ECHL. That's how bad he is. Funny thing is, Hockeyfights.com actually does credit him with one win this season, in a fight against Raitis Ivanans on the LA Kings. Ivanans must have been gone easy on him or something, or else it the fight was totally misjudged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
