i thought it was Boro's brother for a sec
So maybe not a glue guy after all.Scores in his first game for Bingo
Everyone around here needs to take a deep breath, Ottawa produces tons of NHL quality talent. Ripping on the guy just because he is from Ottawa is absolutely absurd. Id love to see you guys lace em up with all the chirping that goes on around here.
With that being said, the Spinks are both much better players but due to their size are destined for europe.
Since someone brought it up; there is nothing wrong signing Ottawa natives. There is a problem giving Ottawa natives significant priority over other players
Expecting a few NCAA and overage junior signings as well.Adding free players is never a bad thingSeems like a pure Bingo signing. They definitely need a few new bodies down there.
In fairness, lots of Ottawa guys were never (or haven't been) given 'a shot' (Corey Cowick, O'Dell, Brassard, Fraser
and lots of Ottawa guys didn't get extensions (Carkner, Benoit, Brendan Bell, Martin St Pierre, Alex Picard)
It's weird that it is seen as a bad thing that Ottawa tries more than other cities to find NHL players out of the Ottawa region
Go figure.
Montreal doesn't do that enough and they get BASHED. Ottawa does it a lot and they get BASHED. Go figure again.
Same thing for Toronto too.
Honestly though i think it's just a vocal minority who don't like the attempt to get some local players. For the most part, it's been a great effort, amd many fans appreciate it. Methot, Pageau and Ceci are all solid nhl players who could play a role on any team. Pageau is easily one of the most popular fan favourites and a big part of that is him being a local guy.
Ten posts making jokes to entertain each other in good fun.
Ten posts from guys who can't seem to understand that it was all in good fun and not a one of those posts was serious.
Yeah, go figure indeed.

I wonder how many of the local guys were actually fans of the team before they got here?
Ah, a countryman of Marious Czerkawski.
Probably butchered that name.
