rams80 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Wouldn't introducing a person who only knows how to get into trouble to a town in which that is the only thing to do be a bad influence on the young players?He's won a cup and a gold medeal and if he can teach the players not to make the same mistakesm and just enjoy the game the way he seems to be doing now I think that would be a positive influence around the dressing room.Do we have any prior evidence of positive mentoring out of him?

Brendan Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 You really seem to be emotionally invested in the return of a guy who was bad at hockey seven years ago!What? I made two post saying that I think they should of sent him to the AHL. How am I emotionally invested? I seriously wouldn't care if doesn't play, just it would be a cool story if he could come back. People change the guy has made mistakes, he knows it and he just wants to play competitive hockey I don't see how that would have a negative effect on the young Flames prospects.

NEW.ERA Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 If he can't do it in the NHL what makes anyone think he could make it in the AHL, where it's a dogfight every night for those players trying to make it to the NHL.This comeback story is amazing no matter what the outcome was he'll announce his retirement on Monday and the Flames will retire his jersey sometime this year.

If he hadn't cleaned himself up and got sober, the NHL wouldn't have reinstated him and the Flames wouldn't have given him a shot. Personally, I think he should probably move on and concentrate on staying on a good path. If he'd gotten sorted out and tried this three or four years ago, it might have worked, but at 41, he's just too old and slow. Maybe he should look at other ways to stay involved with hockey. He's got enough passion and personality that he might do well as a hockey broadcaster. Fleury isn't really the same situation as Keane in Winnipeg. That's Keane's hometown and he was moving back there anyways, Fleury doesn't have any history or support system like family in Abbottsford.

SenatorJake Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Hello sports fans.Lang signs with the Phoenix Coyotes. (pending physical)Afineganov signs with the Atlanta Thrashers. I think that both Lang and Afineganov will benefit greatly from their new teams. Lang could use some of that desert air and Afineganov was starting to look really lost with the Sabres. Sometimes all a player needs is a change to get him going again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrySmalls Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 If you had DiPietro being shelved before the season begins in your "DiPietro Injury Pool" then you've won....an opportunity to start in net for the Isles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Afinogenov is too talented to post the lousy numbers he has in recent years. Hopefully a change of scenery will wake him up.

spyboy1 Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Mats Sundin has retired.In this day and age of people like Peter Forsberg and Brett Favre, I'm skeptical. At least his statement seemed rather definitive.
