nice to see

felt like a tossup whether he would sign here or not

Buium grew up as a Redwings fan so it was easier to sign him.

Smart guy. Pretty excited to see what we got here. Kick some A Shai!

Had a stronger junior season this year than Brock Faber did last year. Just adding this for some inflated hopium. His USHL + College numbers have actually always better than Faber's.

So let's hope he's that second round steal this roster desperately needs.

Thing is, Faber was never about the numbers. He didn't even play on the PP in college. He was named B10 defensivel player of the year twice...that's where he shone, and continues to shine in the NHL. He is a rock solid defender, with good size, strength, great skating, and elite defensive instincts.

Saying Buium is somehow better because he had more points is missing the point, entirely, of Faber's worth.

Great piece of business here.
I had my doubts he would agree to terms with us.

It's interesting to add him and Edvinsson at same time.

What was the Griffins Top6 defence on last game ?

Top 6 looked like this:
Simek - Rafferty
Johansson - Didier
Wallinder - Tuomisto

Maybe resting some banged up players before the playoffs.

A few folks thought he wouldn't sign (not you Jaster, not you).

There was never any doubt. The number of posts about being worried he wouldn't sign are downright bewildering. Blatantly confounding. Inordinately baffling!

Hell, that is most of the reasons I visit this site.

Griffins confirmed he'll be in tonight

 

[Bear of Bad News]

Cease and desist, folks. Take the hint.

Spelling Buium incorrectly I feel is going to be the new Filppula.
