Confirmed with Link: CBJ sign Nathan Gerbe

[Theo Von]

I put this as a ‘rumor’ because the team hasn’t made it official but I’m sure it’ll be announced after the game or early tomorrow.

Interesting....

 

[Hipster Letestu]

Cam's not the shortest guy on the ream anymore..

 

[The Jones Zone]

sure it's a minimal contract, don't mind it, saw him in Carolina many times
He plays with an edge, something maybe this team can use at times

--Another indication Jarmo isn't trading prospects/picks for a rental

 

[Theo Von]

I find this move odd.. we just claimed Jussi. And now add Gerbe? Definitely feel like there’s more to this.

 

[Viqsi]

...wouldn't this be his second tour of duty with the organization?

EDIT: Nope, I'm thinking of Paetsch.

Negative.
Has only been apart of the Canes and the Sabres organizations.

 

[Cowumbus]

I liked him on the Canes.. is he the same player though? I bet not. We will see.

 

[DJA]

I guess he's better than the Motte, Schroeder, Hannikainen, Dalpe shit pile we have for 4th liners.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

The missing piece.

 

[Theo Von]

Apparently he’s a huge Foligno follower.



The dude’s got hands.

I had the exact same thought. If it helps, which it shouldn't.

Helping out Cleveland?

I mean he never was a great NHLer, but his college run at BC was great. I remember watching him destroy UND and ND at the Frozen Four.

I always liked Gerbe. He seemed to usually do pretty well against the Jackets.. dare I say a "Jackets killer?"

Hopefully this is a move for the Monsters though, as I don't see him adding much to the big club. Not to mention I'd like to get to watch him in Cleveland.

 

[DJA]

This is official now so the rumor tag can be removed.

He has 1 goal and 4 assists in 15 games against Columbus.

Ok, well he must have played well in the one game I remember being at hahah.

 

[SavesEmNot]

Is his nickname Baby Food?

 

[JohnnyJacket13]

He’s not going to play in the NHL. Cleveland needs forwards - I believe they’re one of the lowest scoring teams in the AHL

Unlike big club that is scoring in bunches!

They're the lowest scoring team.

Good pickup. Wouldn't be surprised to see him get a call up - he's got filthy hands and can help if you are starved for offence.

For some reason I always mix him up with Kerby Rychel.

lol

its pretty bad. But they did win 5-0 last night! Alex Broadhurst's older brother that you've never heard of Terry Broadhurst with the hatty.
