I don’t want to comment on the quality of the Kunitz or Manning signings as I’m sure there’s a majority opinion similar to mine already.

I do want to apologize for Manning and Boxcar though. Positive is if Manning is a 7th he’s good because he’s a great locker room/character guy and he’s young. Boxcars incessant positivity (albeit largely toward Manning) can be refreshing during bad times. My biggest sympathies if Manning is more than a 7th (been there) and Boxcar is entirely a fan of Manning and not the team. Haven’t seen a post from him on the Flyers board since this signing.

Hey GG, good to hear from you. The Hawks have been my second favorite team since Dave Manson’s tenure in the 80’s. I was very happy to see Mandog sign with them.

He had a slightly rough second period tonight but looked better in the third. I still think he will do well under Q.

I think I remember you saying something extremely similar about the Flyers when Manning was brought up. Were you posting on the Hawks board before Manning was signed? Because my point kind of stands.

Putting aside that you said *second* favorite team. Who’s your first? Just curious if you post there at all.

Manning reminded me of Andrei Zyuzin out there...better served as a traffic cone to direct parking into the UC before the game.

I think he's payback for Sharp.

I know it's one game but still, that was not a good showing.

I don't believe he has ever posted here prior...

I have no problems with his posts and we throw some jabs at him, but it is a bit obsessive when the only posts he makes is about the guy in his avatar.

Manning really needs to play like he did in the 1st because he will be watching a lot if he plays like he did in the 2nd and 3rd. He just tries to do to much and he does not have the ability. He needs to realize he is a 6D and not a 2D.

Brandon Manning is bad at hockey and I honestly think he might not make this team considering how Davidson has played. That would look very bad on Stan Bowman.

Which is probably why he will make the team, but I hope you’re right about him not making it.

Let's cross streams and pair Seabrook and Manning. Let's blow up the world.
