Interesting.
I wonder what 05 will have to say about this.
He nearly bit my head off when I suggested that moving players such as Maxie into management positions could be used by teams to “hide” veterans players from the SMS.
Now lo and behold…
Can Ed Hervey’s “un-retirement” be far behind now that Tucker is out…?
You honestly believe he was moved into scouting to "hide" him?
...lol, at 6'3" 270 lbs that's a tough guy to hide...
For the record, I disagree with Arius' assumption that he was "hidden" , but Im wondering if this is a good move by the Stamps. He may be effective, but he may be a bust as well. It could be like the Montford situation in Edmonton last year.
...yup, I'd like to know how he could go from scout-ready to game-ready in so little time....Higgins was quoted on the radio that DMax will see limited playing time, more there as a backup...
On the upside, he will be fresh.
I could see him performing well, in a limited
role.
Hey with the problems along the d-line for some teams, they likely would have picked Maxie up. He played good in Sask and in Calgary....but is getting a little long in the tooth to be anything but temporary help.
...I could see vets like Coe and Clark being happy with this reunion...wonder if Napastuk is taking any calls from Barker?....
