Guest 13GoWings40 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 (edited) Excellent signing for the bottom pair! he's good a good physical presence and will be looking to rebound after his time in Columbus. I've wanted him on this team since he won the cup since Carolina Edited July 1, 2011 by 13GoWings40 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

X13WINGS13X 25 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 I guess Holland needed some place to hide hudler and Mike Commodore's hair was available for 900k and the body attached came for an extra 100k. 1 T.Low reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShanahanMan 473 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 (edited) Well ladies and gentlemen, there's our number two guy. A guy who's been plagued with injury problems and only played 20 games last year. There's no master plan folks. On that note, I'm going to bed. Goodnight. Edited July 1, 2011 by ShanahanMan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest echos myron Report post Posted July 1, 2011 (edited) The Wings don't need to replace Rafalski. I think they would be better off going in a more defensive direction than the last 2 or 3years. Edited July 1, 2011 by echos myron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,794 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 (edited) At least we finally got that big boy from Saskatchewan that I've always wanted on the team. Holland has lost his mind. Edited July 1, 2011 by GMRwings1983 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ogreslayer 1,069 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 This makes no sense. I thought Babs and Mike didn't like eachother. Booooooo Wasted money if you ask me... Yup, this could get interesting.... "Mike Babcock was without a doubt an obstacle in my career," said Commodore of the coach who traded him from Anaheim to Calgary in 2003. "I wanted to prove him wrong, I'm not going to lie. I used him as big-time motivation. I thought he put his best foot forward to bury me." http://www.bluejacketsxtra.com/live/content/sports/stories/2009/01/27/jackets_1-27.ART_ART_01-27-09_C1_M8CMUVB.html?sid=101 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
