Confirmed with Link: Micheal Haley

[sr228]

How does Scott not stand up for his teammates? That's kind of his whole thing...

Mostly because there aren't many NHLers that are dumb enough to go with Scott...they'll just skate away and let him take dumb penalties.

 

[Negatively Positive]

So... Scott-Brown-Haley 4th line against the Kings? They'll all be ejected by the 2nd period and the Sharks will be trailing 5-0 because they had to kill off 15 minutes of penalties but hey truculence right?

and who cares.

It's game 1 of 82.

Ruined the perfect season. The game on 9/30 is most likely the only time all three will be in the line up. (hopefully).

I bet that was said a lot over the course of last season when we were giving up points that could've won us the division and avoided the Kings in the first round.

Pretty sure 99% of people on here wanted to play LA; and I was in the 1%.

Plus this upcoming season doesn't matter since we're taking steps backwards anyways.

I sincerely doubt your first line was really the case. Lots of people preferred to avoid the Kings but still believed the team could win if necessary.

If this season is a throw-away, what's the point of icing that group of 4th liners?

Because they are planning on having a bunch of young kids on the team. Or so Doug Wilson says. They want goons to "protect" them....

Not another fighter...

It's clearly an insurance signing...for when Scott and Brown get suspended.

Haley will get suspended before either of those guys. Loose cannon.

 

[hohosaregood]

I highly doubt he's higher on the goon depth chart than Scott or Brown.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

I highly doubt he's higher on the goon depth chart than Scott or Brown.

Not on the depth chart. Higher on the crazy chart.

 

[hohosaregood]

Not on the depth chart. Higher on the crazy chart.

I won't deny that. I was just thinking that it's highly unlikely he'll get a chance to play before Scott or Brown. Crazy is certainly something that I want in an enforcer though(assuming that they even worked). Crazies are scary.

 

[Speed]

I see him as a Pelech replacement in Worcester. Nothing more. But Worcester fans loved Pelech. Haley - not so much.

 

[tahoesharksfan]

I have the same reaction to this signing as I did to the John Scott signing: WTF?

I'm seriously PO'd about how bad our season is looking already...

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

All your goons are belong to us.

 

[Hold the Pickles]

All your goons are belong to us.

We should rename our team the goonies... I bet we can get John Scott to say Heeeey you guuuuuys!!!

Don't they have to kind of be on the ice at the same time to protect them? It was never the John Scotts and Mike Browns of the world that had to be dealt with when it comes to injuring players. It's the guys that don't go at all like Lapierre and Brown that you don't handle by fighting them. You handle it by injuring them in the same dirty manner they do to the team. And the goons we're getting won't do that.

That's what I'm talking about. We need more dishonorable jerks and/or wildcards.

They need a new age Bryan Marchment.

That's one thing about Scott, he's not shy about going after other teams skill guys if need be. The whole reason he went after Kessel was because a leaf echl tough guy spot picked against smaller Sabres forward and then celebrated his win.

I don't know/care. Just relaying that these moves are not a big deal, but everyone is flipping out because it's the only move Doug Wilson has made.

I think it's great we're getting some goons. Rather have John Scott fight than Wingels or Couture.
