WhiteLightning91 105 Report post Posted September 10, 2007 Why does Holland insist on bringing in half-ass "tough guys"??? None of those 3 guys either use their size effectively (Sopel, Cullimore) or always seem to get their bell rung everytime they engage in a fight (Downey) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HockeyCrazy3033 168 Report post Posted September 10, 2007 this one is much better HELL YES IT IS. I remember that. Sign him, Kenny! hehe Why does Holland insist on bringing in half-ass "tough guys"??? None of those 3 guys either use their size effectively (Sopel, Cullimore) or always seem to get their bell rung everytime they engage in a fight (Downey) Who cares. I'd rather have our players fight and lose, then not fight and stick up for the mates at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hank 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2007 (edited) http://redwingscorner.blogspot.com/2007/09...nt-tryouts.html I'm bigger on Sopel than the other two. He's a right-handed shot that is competent in his zone and great on the PP. Cullimore gives us exactly what Lielja gives us now. And while Downey can chuck knuckles better than anyone on our club, he's still a liability out there. Lidstrom-Sopel Kronwall-Rafalski Leijla/Lebda-Chelios That's a pretty good defense right there. Lots of puck movers and everyone takes care of their own end. Edited September 10, 2007 by Hank Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

norrisnick 1 Report post Posted September 10, 2007 Who is going to be Kronwall's replacement? Kindl, Ericsson, or Quincey. Kenny's of the mind that they are not in competition for the 7th spot. They're in the competition for one of the active roster spots. And Nik going down opens up a lot of minutes. butchered that edit.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

datsyukonethree 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2007 Sopel would rock. He throws his weight around more than any of our current top 6. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hatcher#2 13 Report post Posted September 10, 2007 Downey isn't the best tough guy in the world but he sure isn't the worst either, he can throw down and is very willing. Its just nice to see that the Wings camp has a few fighters in it this year with Adam Keefe, David Jarram, Brad Ference, Neil Clark and now Aaron Downey. The camp should be pretty entertaining if nothing else. Lets hope a few of them get into a couple of pre season games too and get to throw their weight around a bit.

Cicada 4 Report post Posted September 10, 2007 Sopel i wouldn't mind.. Downey would and should be a GR player if anything. Cullimore can kindly go out side and play hide and go f*** himself. He was the worst player on the blackhawks last season...worse than aucoin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted September 10, 2007 Sopel I like. Cullimore isnt much, a 7th defenceman at best Downey .. YES PLEASE. Will cost us nothing and will stick up for his teamates, he wont win many fights, but he will at least try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SweWings 45 Report post Posted September 10, 2007 I actually wouldn't mind Sopel but to be honest I thought this would be the year when some of our young ones would really get a chance to shine. Hopefully Sopel will be owned by someone like Kindl during camp... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
