The year before lockout he paced for 12 goals, and the year before that he had 20.

Not really tough enough for a 4th liner. So he must be starting off as a replacement for Ebbett.

He's been pretty dynamite at the AHL-level, so at the very worst it's a good pickup for the sake of the Comets. Plus, he's a local-guy which sometimes pays off in a little additional effort.

If he can bounce back to a 30-40 pointer though, it could end up being a steal..

Should note that the year he had 41 points on the Panthers, he played on the same team as David Booth, Chris Higgins and Jason Garrison.
