Chris88 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2008 Ference used to be a good player. He still kind of is. He is a character guy. I liked having him playing for Grand Rapids. I think he is playing in europe now though. 7th overall is just bad though...he was good in juniors though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dump-N-Thump Report post Posted July 10, 2008 Brad signed with us last year. He had an injury riddled season with the Griffins.. When he played, he really wasn't that great *so ive heard, didn't actually get to see him* But yah, he is a AHL d-man.. nothing better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted July 11, 2008 Big physical defenceman. Never panned out like the Canucks or the Flames wanted, but he's still good for 100 PIMs and solid defensive play in the minors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
