JoeBuddy 10 Report post Posted August 6, 2009 Thanks a lot... I wish I was wrong too but what can we do? We don't manage the Wings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeBuddy 10 Report post Posted August 7, 2009 What I find interesting though is Holland devulging such info to your brother - a complete stranger more or less...Did your brother detect a hint of menthol schnapps on Kenny's breath The way I figure is that eventually it will be out in the media, so what's the harm in telling a 17 year old Wings fan that we just signed someone? I think that maybe if it was a bigger signing or trade, he would've been more hesitant to say. But in all honesty, Jason Williams is no big deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pavyaz19 1 Report post Posted August 7, 2009 I knew there had to be something up with Draper's neck and wondered why no one ever talked about his weird black turtleneck undershirt that he started wearing when he came back. I'm glad you posted that... it all makes sense now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was told not to, and 2. everyone wants links, which I don't have. First of all, where does he even fit? Datsyuk-Zetterberg-Holmstrom Cleary-Filppula-Franzen Leino-Helm-Williams Maltby-Draper-Eaves Someone would have to be bumped off the roster. Please God, let it be Williams. Also, can he still fight? Will he shut up the staunch enforcer crowd? EDIT: Who told you about this rumor? Edited August 15, 2009 by titanium2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dude, don't ask me where he fits because I can't answer that, I'm on board with everyone else who doesn't want him here. You're asking me questions as if I'm trying to make a case for him being here, and no, I'm definitely not. Who told me about this rumor?

Perhaps your buddy was asked to dig up the old Bertuzzi jerseys out of the archives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps your buddy was asked to dig up the old Bertuzzi jerseys out of the archives. My apologies then. It sounded like you were trying to give me a tough time for passing on something I was told. Which most people here normally do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
