just saw this. jumped out of my seat at work. praise be to holland.

Bye felicia

 

[Probert]

I think Cleary will retire and take a job with the team close to the players. Larkin makes the team. Ouellet fills in for DK until Marchenko is healthy. Pulki rides pine until he steals a spot. So does Ferraro. Until Holland packages Kindl and Andersson for picks.

Cleary will retire before he plays for another team or in the AHL. Everything continues to proceed as I have foreseen.

Maybe babs will want him in Toronto

 

[ArGarBarGar]

And you guys were worried.

Nothing can make this day any better. Absolutely nothing.

Sweet Jesus, the sun is shining in Motown

Can we please get this lucky, But I seriously doubt it Toronto already picked up a player yesterday and had to put Panick on waivers to clear space. Let's just hope once Cleary clears he just gets smart and decides to retire nobody wants him period.

Good.

then why did they sing him just a few weeks ago ?

then why did they sing him just a few weeks ago ?

Cause it's the last of the $7M that Philly was going to pay him that we "interrupted" him from getting, so that he could continue playing in Detroit. It's also salary we can have not hit the cap and still pay him if he wants to retire.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

then why did they sing him just a few weeks ago ?

Because Ken Holland is to loyal to some players? And I guess he had made a promise to Cleary a few years back and he was going to make good on the promise. Just a pure waste of a signing IMHO though.

He can still make 1 almost million dollars if he chooses, just has to come to terms with the fact that he's not an NHL caliber player anymore. He may retire.

Well, this was predictable.

Now go be a good leader on the Griffs, Dan.

 

[Mister Ed]

Watch him get claimed by the Leafs

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Holland pretty much already stated that Cleary was the 15th Forward and he wasn't going to take a job from any of the kids. So this was pretty much expected.

You mean Toledo?

Watch him get claimed by the Leafs

They claimed Corrado yesterday and put Panick on waivers so most likely their done, But we can hope that the Leafs claim him let him play for Babs they deserve him.

 

[Pavels Dog]

This was definitely a case of people being annoyed/worried/angry for nothing.

He's not gone yet. Waived <> demoted. This just means they can send him down in the next 30 days without having to waive him again.

I don't think he's going anywhere.

Helm practiced in full today. Kindl has a decrent chance of returning tomorrow. I really doubt he's coming back up.

 

[DeYarmond Edison]

Are you guys really thinking he won't just nut up and play in the AHL? Dude just seems to love hockey.

What would be the point of waiving him if he's not going anywhere?
