glasgowcelticwing 18 Report post Posted July 6, 2007 I liked Booter , but I think it's is probably better for him to leave . if he can't break into the Wings team now , he never will. it's better that he tries to make the break into the NHL somewhere else.

LeftWinger 4,959 Report post Posted July 6, 2007 ...not that Bootland was a regular or even had a chance to be a regular, but this will hurt GRR more than us. But no worry, Holland will just sign Mypoopen Hertin to replace him. Ya know, he's only 40 but man he scored 25 goals in 10 season with the Swedish carpool team, plus he's 6'5" and 125lbs....

Bannedforlife 403 Report post Posted July 6, 2007 wow... our forwards or possiblilities of forwards are dropping like flys... Perhaps the Wings Uppers has a case of Scurvy... or how you English gents say it..... the plague! Cheers Q! Scurvy is a deficiency disease that results from a lack of vitamin C. The plague is a bacterial infection caused by the bite of an infected flea. The bacteria multiply inside the flea, sticking together to form a plug that blocks its stomach and causes it to begin to starve. The flea then bites a host and continues to feed, even though it can not fulfill its hunger, and consequently the flea vomits blood tainted with the bacteria back into the bite wound. Savvy??

Rob the Badger 0 Report post Posted July 6, 2007 Booter is a great guy and has been a fan favorite in Grand Rapids for years. He's had good offensive stats and has scored some big goals. He's most likely a career AHL player who will have a hard time breaking the Isle's roster. Still, the Griffins will miss him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coyote0106 2 Report post Posted July 6, 2007 .... I just pay attention to who's on the team, and i know there's a couple guys down there like Bootland, Norton, and Amadio that will throw down. Well, we lost Amadio last off-season to Iowa, and then he was traded to an AHL team out East. The guy in charge of the unofficial griffin site (if you will), said that Adam Keefe liked GR, and GR liked Keefe, so hopefully he is our fighter next year. He's not overpowering, or huge, but he sure is the entertainment value of the minors. He's a scrappy little guy. As for losing Bootland, it's sad that just on the value that he's been a Griff for what seems like forever, and we're losing him to, IMO, Bridgeport. I would like to see him atleast get 4th line minutes in NY, but.... I dont see him cracking even the Islanders roster. Opponents got into his head way to easy, and that would throw him off for the night. He did have his moments, but I'm not to sad to see the good go with the bad.
