Squirrel in the Hole
Be the best squirrel in the hole
Hmmm... Mongo confused. I thought that the whole idea of signing Cleary after his rather inauspicious year last year was because he still wanted to play hockey. And, it should have been clear to him the rather slim odds of making the team with all the talented forwards we have. So, logic dictates that the chances of him plying his wares in Grand Rapids this year were great.
So, if he still thinks he can play, why refuse to report? Did he want Holland to waive Anderson, Ferraro, or another useful player instead of him? Did he expect Toronto or Philadelphia to claim him?
This is a horrible way for him to go out, you'd think he'd want better. Don't sign, retire with honor, or play on in GR, don't be petulant.
