You do all this stuff and a bit more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted August 25, 2011 Great news. Training with big Gary helped turn Stamkos into the star he is, hopefully he rubs off on Mccollum and Smith. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
newfy 695 Report post Posted August 25, 2011 (edited) Great news. Training with big Gary helped turn Stamkos into the star he is, hopefully he rubs off on Mccollum and Smith. Its just a one week camp but hopefully its enough to help Smith figure out whta he has to do to be a force out there. Smith is a do it all type guy like Roberts was, he could hit, fight score, and would belong on anyones top line. Hopefully all these apects of Smiths game can be learned and rubbed off of from Roberts while hes there for a week. Edit: for the record, Biznasty is a beauty I would love to see him as the wings 13th forward. Mitch Callahan and himself were chirpin eachother the other day on twitter actually Edited August 25, 2011 by newfy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The thing is, he is extremely one-dimensional. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The thing is, he is extremely one-dimensional. if you check his fighting card he's won quite a lot of fights, though. good to see mccollum at this camp. gary roberts does not mess around with his training.

Yeah he does decent. He was used sparingly in Phoenix last year, playing in just 48 games, collecting 71 penalty minutes. He seems like a great character guy, that's for sure. Roberts was an extremely well-rounded player in his day. Hopefully Smith will develop that style while training with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
