Carolina fans seem happy. Not a good sign but at least he's played in the NHL? Ottawa's 6th going back.

Good to drop a 6th round pick for a warm body. I'll take it.

6th round pick I believe,

not sure about him, but he is an NHL defenceman would have had relationship with Maurice prior

Assets:Has big-league size and strength. Displays the profile of a classic stay-at-home blueliner with defensive and physical prowess.

Flaws:Can struggle with speedy forwards. Not a punishing hitter, despite ample size, he needs to keep his game simple because of his average skill set.

Career Potential: Big depth defenseman.

Jets make a trade?

Wow, hope the injuries can slow down now... c'mon it's Christmas time!

Not the Carolina defenseman I was hoping for...

 

[pegcity]

He has another year on his deal after this one

I'll take it.
Got an NHL player when we desperately needed one. And only gave up a pick which was unlikely to turn into and NHL player

Good news! I got nervous when I saw "D from Carolina"... assumed Hainsey was coming back - yikes!

 

[Jesus Christ Horburn]

Harrison played under PoMo for 4 years between the Leafs and Hurricanes.

Can't imagine Maurice wasn't lobbying for him.

 

[dpenner]

has played a bunch of 20+ minute games this year.....for the canes but still...poor mans mark stuart?

Ron Hainsey?

I would love Hainsey back.

Sounds like PoMo wanted this guy.

Quite far down Carolina depth chart and has been "not dressed" for a few games, but does put in >15 mins when he plays and is a lefty. Happy to get someone especially a LHD right now.

 

[EpicGingy]

I'll take it.

[Koonta]
