serge 904 Posted August 17, 2011 Author Share Posted August 17, 2011 Does Brunnstrom get a shot this season?Looks like he will get a shot with your Wings at training camp. Link to post Share on other sites
mrdannyg 274 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Looks like he will get a shot with your Wings at training camp.In other words: no. Good for him to look for a top-shelf organization to try out with, but might've been a better move to find an organization with more need for a center.If he's lucky, he'll move ahead of (Moneyshots draftee) Francis Pare for about 7th on the depth chart.

serge 904 Posted August 17, 2011 Author Share Posted August 17, 2011 No, we don't need crutches for our mistakes like you AHL'ers.An exempt list is NOT a crutch for a mistake. You cant just put any bad salary on there.In recent years, decent players have left the NHL to go to Russia .Or it protects you from getting hurt when you lose a player to a long term injury, that will last the year.Just because you made a bad signing, you cant just him on that list. He needs to qualify to be put there. Link to post Share on other sites

MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I dont like the exempt list much either. In some circumstances it makes sense, but too often is used to store dead weight and is indeed used as a crutch. Link to post Share on other sites
