Just reading McNally's comments in Sheffield Star article online. Apart from the usual clichés and platitude comments that fans want to hear from a new player, some of his statements are interesting.....there is a hint there that he was hoping to return to Devils, then when it was obvious it wasn't going to happen, he looked elsewhere.
There is no doubting his versatility. But also his liability unfortunately. Fox says McNally has a point to prove. That's OK against the Devils....Big Lou will keep him quiet!
McNally says he will carry out any role given to him by his coach. At Devils, he says (sarcastically?), they wanted a 4th liner and he delivered that.
Did he REALLY though? Unfortunately, in the last half of the season, I just saw a player on the 4th line who was going through the motions, looking disinterested and coasting through games. We don't know the reasons for that, but it certainly wasn't the actions of a player trying to impress his coach for a return the next season.
