Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted November 9, 2010 Playing superbly. Has turned our dreadful 3rd line into our current most productive line. He hits, he plays with an edge, he's good on faceoffs, he goes hard to the net. Anyone else really, really like this guy? 3 Hockeymom1960, The Secret and IILeiBlazeII reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titanium2 867 Report post Posted November 9, 2010 He sure did but why are the other lines not so good anymore. If the choices are a good 1st, 2nd and 4th with an average 3rd instead of the other way around then... Well, it's no contest, really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hankzet40 233 Report post Posted November 9, 2010 (edited) Yeah that 3rd line has been very effective since he came on. Brings the hits and can crease crash well. Thumbs up. Edited November 9, 2010 by hankzet40 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

acidroach420 25 Report post Posted November 9, 2010 i think abby has a lot of potential still for the team. If he stays with us, i could see him being a real leader on the team, among the players coming out of GR in the next few years. 1 Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
55fan 5,133 Report post Posted November 9, 2010 (edited) I'm liking him. Between him and Helm, the future looks bright. I've heard that the two of them are referred to by the rest of the team as "Dumb and Dumber", but I hope that isn't in a bad way. Not to mention that he has spawned more nicknames than few others before him. Edited November 9, 2010 by 55fan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've heard that the two of them are referred to by the rest of the team as "Dumb and Dumber", but I hope that isn't in a bad way. Not to mention that he has spawned more nicknames than few others before him. I've enjoyed watching both Abby and Cleary so far this season. Both have a lot of fire in their play, and put in 110% effort every shift. I'm pretty sure that they've been called Dumb and Dumber for a while now. Doubt they're being derogatory.

Doc Holliday 1,888 Report post Posted November 9, 2010 Ever since he scored the game winner in the NCAA Championship back in 07 I've been a huge fan of his. Guy needs to learn how to fight, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
newfy 695 Report post Posted November 9, 2010 Cleary and Z are cycling like Lance Armstrong out there. It's beautiful to watch. Theyre cycling like they have one nut and theyre on steroids? But seriously some people were questioning if he'll ever be more then a third liner in this league because he didnt have many points last season. Well look what the guy can do with linemates that aren't Maltby and May. He's alreadya very solid third liner and hes just about to play his first NHL season. He'll be a top 6er and score 20 goals in the next 3 years I think Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he stays with us, i could see him being a real leader on the team, among the players coming out of GR in the next few years. Me, too. He's just amazing and he's not even close to his peak yet. I think he could potentially be another Franzen: we're expecting a solid 3rd liner, but if he ever discovers his scoring touch like Franzen did look out.

evilzyme 769 Report post Posted November 9, 2010 It also helps that cleary is throwing his body and is everywhere in the play for the 3rd line, when you have 2 players running around throwing their body around and getting dirty in the plays its great. I think abby and cleary are magical together. Did anyone else notice babcock used the 3rd line as a grind line against nashville? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Johnny Law 15 Report post Posted November 9, 2010 He really developed his game over the off season, he really has figured out how to protect the puck and use his strength to shield. Honestly his game last night against the Yotes was probably the best he's played....he could be dangerous on the 3rd line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
