I may just be getting sucked in by his Coach's Corner coverage, but Brendan Witt looks like a mini-Komisarek/super-Bouillon/O'Byrne-role model that would certainly bring some grit and stability to the back end.
I think he carries a fairly hefty price tag though.
I thought Price made fantastic saves and let in some lousy goals. He has every right to yell at his teammates, but only if his game gets better as well.
My favourite part was when he didn't bail on the puck with that massive russian (Artukin?) barrelling down on him. O'Byrne passed the puck, took the big hit and stayed up. If he does nothing else but nullify other teams big players in our zone, he's worth the roster spot.
Am I the only one that thinks Kaberle will cost more than Bouwmeester? Bouw is a rental, whereas Kaberle is under contract.
Not to mention what it's going to cost to send a top defenseman to a division rival.
New blood and old friends welcome.
Any of these teams are good to cut your teeth on in EHM. Also, any of these teams are good to contend for the cup if you know what you're doing.
And finally, if you sign up, blaze53 will hit on you...often.
I thought the show was really well done (except for letting the intern director during the young stars game).
They'll get the breakaway contest right eventually. It was better than last year's!
I would have guessed the movie had the quote been "A lively tune! I'm inspired to dance!" or "This sash was a gift to me from the Queen of America" or "with the flick of my wrist I could change your religion."
Anyways, thanks Koz!
