Tailing the Komets

Franke: P.C. had a great career with us

Komets General Manager David Franke said, ``P.C. has had a heck of acareer with us. He's had a great hockey career.

``I think it's just a time we've started the process of rebuilding the club, getting new faces, getting some younger people in. We have to start developing players that will want to play for the Komets for 3-4-5-6 years just like he did. We need to start looking in that direction.''

He said the Komets do not have to make another move before Saturday and do not plan to. They have no interest in Garrett Klotz. They have not talked to Jimmy Bonneau or anyone else right now in an AHL camp. ``That's not happening.''

Maybe the Komets can offer Bloomy a forward and other considerations and get Cescon back. We seem to have an extra forward to offer and a certain D-man on 10 day IR. Just a thought.

Rumor is that Mightbite's guy is in town and will be starting Monday....

Maybe they kept one too many forwards because they are making a trade for a D-man??? Maybe that is why the IR shuffle is going on. Saving the Dman spot for th enew player.

Shawn.....Warner skated as a forward today in practice, the hip injury was announced yesterday.

Orange Koolaid....Warner the new Nuemeier? Have you watched either of those players play hockey? Stupid comment. Warner non-defensive defenseman that is offensive......Nuemeier Very Defensive fairly physical and steady defenseman that was minimal in offensive skill. Great post though.

I mentioned on a great site today (OHIC), that the cutting of PC stings some people as much as cutting Leo could have stung others, or if rookie talent that we need, being cut would have been a stinger. It is never easy to say goodbye to a favorite player, but this will work out in the long run. It is time to start pulling the trigger in areas every year to make sure that you have a healthy mix of young and experienced. This move today was nothing more than a move into a new direction to lock up some young talent, and allow that talent a chance to grow into the next Komet Favorite or AA-AAA star.

So ready for the puck to drop on Saturday.

So maybe mightbite is right about the "new guy"=just a few days late?????????

This is the last time I will tell about players. I got bad talk about "this one"
I get my info from a guy that does not talk out of the side of his mouth. Every player that I have named has been here=even when franke + Blake says no. I hope Sgroi beats down a Komet player on Sat. just to show sims & franke something .

Mightbite,

Not the first time you've said "this is the last time" - I think people are pretty much up in arms because of the cut, maybe some think it wasn't the right guy, if it would have been one of the new guys others would have balked at the K's not going for the youth movement and getting new blood on the roster.

Darned if you do, darned if you don't.

But seriously - you want a replay of Halloween two years ago? While entertaining to see Mac bolt from the penalty box, seeing Lawmaster pummel Shafranov? You really want to see that? Really?

I understand the sentiment of being frustrated at the lack of toughness, but this team hasn't played a regular season game yet. If you want constant fighting on skates, there's a league in Quebec begging for you.

Mightbite do you truly want Sgroi to "beat down" a Komet player just to prove a point? I hope you are just venting, because it is sick to want a human being to be injured just to prove a point.

I still miss seeing Mac take the ice.

Evansville has 21 players on their roster, they are in the same situation to trim or "IR" two players. Sgroi may end up there to start the season, doesn't matter as he's one person will probably play 4 minutes of the entire game.

mightbite is venting because people have been being crappy to him on here. That's all.

mightbite, I posted tailgate party info on today's thread....hope you can make it!!

And I miss seeing Mac take that ice too....sure made some of the other players think twice. I'm always glad to see Shaf healthy and walking around here at Canlan, and think how things could have ended up so differently. Rich Kromm is a goon. We better always watch our backs with him behind the bench.

I just want it clear in this that I am not going into it trying to prove Mightbite wrong. All I am doing is asking the questions from the material he proposes. It would be a little easier to deal with if he would identify the player(s) he believes are coming.

BlueLineBaby, I haven't been "crappy" to Mightbite. Numerous times I have praised him for giving us information and have tried to support him through my posts when others have questioned him.

I want him to continue feeding us the information he learns.

By the way, I have also heard that a new player will be in town on Monday. I don't have any idea who he is or what position he plays. The source seems to be a good one, and is definitely not the same source as Mightbite's.

I just wanted to set the record straight. (At least when it comes to my appreciation of Mightbite and his info).

Thanks, Alan Hines

I was only teasing mighty..I did not mean to seem crappy.

You are my buddy Mighty.

You want to join the OHIC MAN?

You could post player signings on there and everyone would be nice to you there. Jungle Monkey, Blue Line Baby, Red Head Hockey Chicks, Hit Somebody!!!, JR1, all joined. Komet Warrior will let you in OK, MAN?

Komet Warrior said to tell Snuff. rules followed on name game...2 Molles times 4 mentions of name equals 8 molles, ok MAN???

Komet warrior only listens to Blakes and Marks. Not Snuff.

I posted earlier that I was sick in the head & gut. I know Sgroi, he is a very dangerous hockey player compared to lawmaster. I know what he could do to someone, if the setting was there.

BLB, our D-Driver baled on us. So not sure ???

Hit and Alan, I know you two are good to and with mightbite. It has been a few others, and over the past month who have doubted him. Challenging him, that sort of thing. No biggie....mighty is fine, just gets a little down sometimes. I believe in him and know where he gets his info, and it's rock solid. It's awesome when the guys change their minds and go somewhere else, it works out better for them. It just means we here will never know :( The fun of the mightbite mystery :)

Same off-season, different words.

Yay....less than 24 hours!!!!!!!!!!
