newfy 695 Report post Posted December 14, 2009 Not tonight. The Coyotes have no fighters except Biznasty. Vandermeer hasn't been very active this year but usually he'll go with the best of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bring Back The Bruise Bros 1,029 Report post Posted December 14, 2009 Not tonight. The Coyotes have no fighters except Biznasty. Ive been waiting for Detroit to call up this guy.im interested to see how he does.I wouldnt be surprised to see him go with a guy like Jim Vandermeer.I doubt he will go with Paul Bissonnette,Brad May most likely with throw with him.

I'll give Newbury this. He'll never be a heavyweight, never be a prolific goal scorer, but the guy is exciting to watch. Also, he wins most tattoo filled Red Wing by default now. I believe he has 17 tattoos. Likes the pain. I absolutely love this call-up. I was at the Grand Rapids game this weekend, he's just a pure joy to watch. With a temper that is frightening. This happened this weekend- the guy was about 6 inches taller than Kris and 50 pounds heavier: Edited December 14, 2009 by E_S_A_D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haroldsnepsts 4,826 Report post Posted December 14, 2009 (edited) Airfilter isn't a very good nickname since we already have Mule, maybe he could be Rented Mule. (as in "beat him like a rented mule" in case that was too subtle.) Edited December 14, 2009 by haroldsnepsts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And you also gotta love those old Shanny style shoulder pads he's wearing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to see him up here for at least a few games.Scratch Leino once Helm gets back and give this guy a chance.and i knew those shoulder pads looked familiar!!

Mors 201 Report post Posted December 14, 2009 Kinda sad that this call-up and our 38 year old enforcer are easily the toughest players on the team by a mile. I'm honestly starting to believe that Leino could get rocked on the boards by some of these peewees on Youtube. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm ashamed that he is a red wing, atleast zetterberg and datsyuk have balanse, can give and take a hit, leino falls flat every single time, weak. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly, I'm not expecting these guys to fight, but Leino is on his knees with even the slightest bit of contact on the forecheck. I thought maybe it would improve over time...but that's not the case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the calling up of a 27 year old journeyman is actually quite telling and in DIRECT relation to Mr. Ville Leino's ineptness as a hockey player at the NHL level.

Guest micah Report post Posted December 14, 2009 I thought it was cause Holland hated tough guys? He's coming around. He's seen the performance of his best players this year and he thinks that they need to play alongside a handful of guys who are willing to do anything, including take a few Bissonette punches to the beak, to spark the team. That's what he said the other day on the radio on this one station. You probably missed it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
