Thank heavens they signed him before the trade deadline. I believe his absence would have severely diminished our defensive capability, and have a negative affect on our team spirit, and ability.
I believe our GM managed to get him at a discount to his fair market value, and that his tendency to work hard to keep himself in shape will keep him playing as a very important part of our team throughout the term of his contract.
His signing reinforces my faith in our management, and hopes for the team going forward. The next step should be to put the letter "A" on his sweater. He has certainly earned it.
