First of all, I have to really give a huge shout to Jenks33 who correctly deciphered my clue a few weeks ago. Never in a million years did I think that someone would be able to come up with Drew Paris from that clue. I'm still shocked. I'm obviously going to have to get way more creative and obscure because you lot are just too clever.
Now on to the players. Drew will be an interesting hybrid between Mark Louis in terms of his size and skating and Carl Hudson with his point shot (which Lordo felt that we missed on our power play). He was extremely keen to come to Cardiff based on what he had heard about our club.
As for Faryna, you didn't honestly think that we would let a Calgary kid that averages a point a game, fights anybody that comes calling and was a complete pain in the ass to play against get passed us did you?! Justin is a great guy. We've spent a good amount of time with him, his wife Kelsea (sp?) and their son Noah in Calgary. They've heard all about the famous Red Army and how well their family will be looked after in Cardiff and can't wait.
So before anybody asks me for a new clue on any other new signings, a) you guys have proven to be too good at decoding and b) we haven't signed any more yet so I can't!!! Lot's of very good candidates but we have so few openings this year that we want to be patient and see what opens up after the July 1st free agency period in North America comes and goes.
Training camp starts in only six and a half weeks!!!
