GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted August 10, 2009 Oh well, he was too physical and hard working to fit into our system anyway. We don't really need guys of that mold on our 3rd line. The 3rd line is for finesse and puck possession, not 6'3 grinders and hard workers who are willing to get their noses dirty. Also, he can't score or skate, which is a must for any 3rd line player around the NHL. Don't know why any Wings fans should be upset about this. It's all good, guys.

GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted August 11, 2009 Sorry bud, I have to rule against you on this one. So based on your theory, I should personally attack anyone who I disagree with on here. Calling people names is apparently the way to go. I hope the mods don't follow your philosophy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miller76 463 Report post Posted August 11, 2009 Well that sucks, Detroit wasn't able to acquire him. All the rumors with Grier never seriously pin pointed at Detroit anyway. Everyone at one time seems to pick a group of desired places to play, and Detroit pops up on their lists. Thats a good thing imo. Holland and Babcock have their way of doing things, and picking up players with certain style of play. I am sure we all would like to see this team get tougher. But if they aren't the grittiest and they get the job done, so be it. I am not going to sit here at my keyboard and throw a fit about not signing some third liner or worse!

Seriously though, he would have been a good addition. Maybe Andreas Lilja can fill in as the Wings' resident black man. You know... to promote diversity.

He made 1.775 million per season, for the last three seasons. His new salary is probably in the neighborhood. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
