garthsbutcher Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 CBJ just put this guy on waivers, hes as tough as they come and will fight all comers. He might create a little more space in Utica for some of our younger guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the team you stole him from has the right to first claim. You can't claim him then send him to Utica unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuxfanabroad Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Back in the 80's I worked with Gerard Gallant's cousin, & heard many a crazy tale. (PEI, Cape Breton legends)These blokes aren't the type to chat things out(counting to 10, etc...) Another 5 yrs & this kind is likely extinct.

I think he will be given his outright release by the organization ect but I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried that parallel universe, SJ, & I just couldn't run with those types. May have been relatives of that bloke you drank with(a generation on, I guess). Played hockey & brawled with them. Also did my boot camp in Cornwallis,(dead of winter, nasty cold!) NS(my parents were Maritimers). In truth, did 3 yrs of the army-gig, but was dealing with depression(back when you didn't discuss 'such matters'). Had to head in the other direction..180 degrees, if possible. Was a square peg in a round hole..but I'll admit to missing those days, in some ways :^) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably! But I run distance(long triathlons..all that nonsense), so that's the part I wouldn't think twice about. Remember eating TONNES of scallops at the mess hall. Finally got wknd-leave(mouth always had me up shyte-creek), would take the ferry 'cross the Bay of Fundy. Had so many relatives in Saint John, NB. All 3 decades after your gig.
