I like what jims been doing in the last few days it's steps in the right direction. no picks or prospects leaving just coming in for players that might be lost for nothing going out. What's not to like. Same. I had a feeling once the season nosedived, that Benning would address it accordingly. I hear he stated to The Sedins and Edler, that he was tearing it down.

EternalCanuckFan Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Sounds like the guy has a high compete level and is an ideal fourth liner who brings speed and tenacity to wear down opponents. Not a saviour by any means, but sounds like a true fourth liner to compliment the more "skilled" guys in the bottom 6 right now (e.g. Megna, Chaput, Skille - no pun intended).

Anaheim fans are not happy about this one..... Like when we lost Corrado unhappy or more like when we lost Volpatti unhappy ? Feels good to be on the other side of these things for a change. Great week so far JB ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes a young lineup play bigger. It's one of the smarter things Chiarelli has done in Edmonton with getting Lucic, Maroon and Kassian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanuckGAME Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Ducks fans are choked about this. I admit I don't know much about the kid, but have done a bunch of reading on HF. kid seems like a VERY effective fast checking forward. Will be a hell of an addition to the bottom 6. Also fits the age range Benning has been building on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang Bang Boogie Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Why would the Ducks waive him? 10 points in 46 games is not too shabby for a 4th line player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if he's tough, fast and can check. Bending is pretty selective with his waiver wire grabs and I think he's done a good job. We now have a couple new guys coming into the lineup. I'm glad ownership ok the much needed rebuild I for one will probly go to more games now and you can clearly see the market is happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Labate can hopefully become what Cramarossa IS in the next couple years. Cramarossa is a gritty NHL level bottom 6'er. Labate is a younger, gritty, AHL bottom 6'er. Utica also needs players back. We just lost Hansen and Burr. We need some NHL level speed, grit PK ability etc back in the lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sygvard Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 TANK COMMANDER CRAMER REPORTING FOR DUTY. He actually has somewhat surreal bad possession stats. This is the kind of guy that you want for a tank year. He can provide crash and bang hockey that is surprisingly fun to watch, while being statisticaly likely to lead to slightly more losses despite his best efforts.

elvis15 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Good pickup, will help our PK with Burrows and Hansen now gone, and he's a good depth option. We can send some help back to Utica as well with this, where with all the call ups we've had we'd really have to make some trades just for them in the AHL right now otherwise.
