No brainer after Girgensons injury. Good depth guy!

After Girgensons is not playing (sad) this is a good signing

This seems like an obvious signing after the injury to Girgensons, smart move by BUF.

Well, they didn't have a choice with Girgensons done for the year. Sheahan really picked the right team to try out with!

Good depth option and most likely Girgensons's replacement

I really liked him had great chemistry with Josh Archibald and was good on the penalty kill ( which was second in the league ) but the 3rd line centre stop was upgraded with Kyle Turris

Most interesting thing this guy will ever do in the league is score the last recorded goal at the Joe.

Another example why saying "He was a 1st round pick" is relatively meaningless after a few years

I don't know why you got in the AHL but it must not be much.

It's been 10 years so yes it is meaningless after 10 years. After 3-4 years and he's putting up 36 points as a 23 year old then you aren't saying anything about him being a bust.

I did when the talk about the Pens going for him started.

However, 36 points doesn't negate my original post.

1st round pick still means something when you are 22-23 years old. At this point in his career it means nothing.
