Interesting comment by Brian Burke on Montour: "Anaheim couldn't find anyone for him to play with as all his defensive partners said he was too unpredictable."

I hope we're not expecting too much from Montour. BTW, here's a picture of him flying to Toronto.

Roman numerals. Sabres jerseys would dominate sales, and crip wardrobes.

Ive only watched a few ducks games this year and Montour didn't really stand out positively or negatively.... eager to watch him play and I hope he ends up being worth the price tag

Pilut-Montour might be fun
I was thinking Dahlin/Montour with the usage Dahlin/Bogo get.

Dahlin/Bogo have roughly a 57% OZS% in their 500+mins together. Dahlin/Montour could be an explosive offensive pairing

Background info on Montour. I was wondering what was up with that tatoo.
Montour is of Mohawk descent and grew up in Ohsweken, a village inside the reserve of Six Nations of the Grand River. Six Nations is known to have the greatest number of people among all First Nations in Canada.[2] His father, Cam Montour, is Native American. In tribute to this, Brandon has an uncompleted tattoo on his left arm that consists of a headdress and feathers.
Montour spent eight years living in Tilbury, Ontario, where he completed his elementary education.[3] He then moved to Ohsweken, Ontario, and attended Assumption College School, in Brantford, Ontario. Montour also grew up playing lacrosse and won a Minto Cup with the Six Nations Arrows.[4]
Montour also played in lacrosse tournaments with Nick Ritchie, a fellow Ducks' team member, as well as Ritchie's brother, Brett Ritchie, who plays for NHL's Dallas Stars.[5]

U lucky bastards he was my favorite duck, he always wants the puck and looking to make something happen. He isn't scared of anyone either.

I’ll admit I don’t watch the Ducks and really never had my own opinion on Montour.

From early sights, I see a player who is very fast, very creative and skilled who’s is decently physical. You can tell he’s thinking offense a lot of the time, I don’t think he’s ever going to be a shut down player but who knows. Offensively, I’m pretty confident he can be a lot like a Tyson Barrie or Jared Spurgeon.

From watching last night the first name that came to my head was Spurgeon.

I watched the third of the Wild Jets game, ya him and Spurgeon could switch jerseys and it would take awhile to figure out whose who. Spurgeon is just further along in his development and more established.
