Red Wings sign college FA Colin Campbell

[PumpkinEscobar 136]

He reminds me of Eaves...someone who can chip in a goal once in awhile and can play the body a little bit. He was shifted around a bit between the top 2 lines. He may turn out to be like Miller or Eaves but I wouldn't expect a whole lot.

He has some physicality and he's not really fast but he should be able to hold up with the level of the AHL

Danny Dekeyser?

I haven't heard/read anything regarding us linked to a defenceman. Where did you read that regarding this years crop?

rumors on other sites mate, one stated from the same NCAA team as Campbell. but then again could be just rumors started by some disgruntled fans.

I have to think the only reason this guy was signed was due to all the injuries to the wings. GR must be running out of players to ice a full team

Would love to see us pick up Trevor van Riemsdyk.

Also lets add Barcley Goodrow to play LW. He is 6-2/215 has 30 goals for North bay and was at our prospect camp last summer.

you would think we would be after morrison since he was dannys teammate.

Kenny MO would be a great add. He is a solid dman.

Is he related to that Colin Campbell???

If he's along the lines of Patrick Eaves or Luke Glendenning, I have no problem with that. I like both those guys for their attitudes and their grit.

As someone stated, his college stats look like Sheahan's

Any depth is good depth. But we have kind of a lot of options for our bottom six.

[Richdg 267]

yes, but GR is about empty. He has 3 years before we have to make up our minds about him.

Man, I smile every time I see this thread title. I have this image in my head of Colin Campbell the Elder coming out of retirement to be our newest UFA disaster.

Yup, true.
