aqua59 921 Posted October 2, 2016 He looked average last night. He lost a step 2 years ago , was lucky to get whAt he got last year, he's done, if he makes it Calgary has big problems and is sliding backwards fast. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaNuCkSLoUiE23 925 Posted March 28, 2017 I guess his NHL career is over? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he's willing to go the Malhotra route and start up from the AHL, he could perhaps make it back one day. He was performing decently in Utica before he was bought out.

I saw a post on HF where someone was talking about how it's Brian Gionta's 1000th game and how he's going to celebrate by shooting a wrist shot into the opposing goalies crest; I automatically thought of Higgins.
