Hmmmmmmm

Interesting.

Not surprised Nemisz was moved - his skating never improved to crack our squad - but westgarth is an interesting pickup because I dont know where he fits in. He isnt going to bump McGratton, we have ferland and McDermott in the minors. Bouma has been playing ok and can kill penalties so I don't see that either.

And it isn't like westgarth can bump jones, galliardi or Colborne out either.

I do recall chatter that some owners were impressed with westgarth during the lockout negotiations.

My only guesses are:
1) we see a promotion for ferland after the Olympics and westgarth takes his spot in Abbotsford; or
2) we have offers on the table or McGratton as current league champ and a toughie who can take a regular shift.
