[Deen]

Decent plug in the line-up.

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

For depth purposes you can do worse than Davidson.

 

[TFHockey]

Good for him!

 

[Captain Mountain]

Good 7th-8th D-man that can play up the line-up due to injuries. Potential there for more.

 

[McClelland]

Happy for him, great depht guy with a rough path!

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Good for Davy. He’s a good player and a great person.

 

[Bring Back Bucky]

Good for him and them. Very useful utility d.

 

[ManofSteel55]

Wish we would have done this instead of wasting our time and resources on Jerabek. Good depth d-man Chicago. Glad he isn't out of the league, he's capable, if unspectacular.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Better then Manning

Sadly Manning will remain given the god awful contract our GM gave him

 

[A91]

Happy for Davy hopefully he can make himself a regular

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Good for Davy

 

[PhoenyX]

Has some locker room issues but for 650k you can’t complain

 

[Captain Controversy]

What's his locker room issues? I think you are full of shit.

 

[PWJunior]

Good for him, easy to root for.

 

[Mr Tadakichi]

What? First I've heard of this.

 

[ManofSteel55]

You must be confusing him with someone else. Brandon Davidson hasn't had reported locker room isseus.

 

[The Nuge]

Good for you Davy! He’s a solid #6/7 who can play up the lineup when needed, and not look out of place

Has some locker room issues but for 650k you can’t complain

No he doesn’t. He’s the opposite of that. The guy has battled against all odds to earn everything, and has a ton of respect in the room. Don’t make things up. This is how rumours get started

 

[Spectra]

Can't possibly be worse than the abomination that is Brandon Manning. The latter will play more though, thanks to incompetent coaching.

You mean thanks to our GM who signed that horrid defender to be a top 4 dman

If Q buries Stanley's big FA acquisition in press box we all know Bowman will make moves to force his player in

Might even go sign a David Rundblad to force Q to choose between which bigger abomination of Bowman's to play

That's league minimum, now. So good for Davidson to make the team, and get a contract. But also good for Chicago to fill a sweater for peanuts.

The Blackhawks are finally in a comfortable place, cap wise, for the first time since their Cup in '09. If they're close to a playoff spot at the deadline, don't be surprised if they go shopping for rentals. Not to mention the serious possibility that they bring Panarin back if he hits UFA.

 

[pheasant]

Side note: I love it every time a guy on a PTO gets a contract.

Dreams do come true if you work hard enough. I am with you on that.

 

[isles55]

Decent bottom-pairing defenseman. I'd prefer him over Pelech, Mayfield, and Sbisa.
