He just seems like the tallest midget, to me (hockey ability AND height reference). He seems like a guy who puts up points in bunches when he's the guy on bad teams (someone has to score some points) but never seems to be "the guy" despite all his pretty numbers.

Unlike Lindros, who, as you said, could be "the guy" and put a team on his back (something G may or may not be able to do), all Cammalleri has to do is put up points.

Personally, I'm most concerned with Buffalo in the next couple years.

I would like Greene, Larsson & Merrill over MacDonald, Grossmann & Schultz

They are doing their best to ruin Larsson.

And they lost Fayne.

I'm not, as they're not in our division. There will always be top teams, but they won't impact our ability to make the playoffs.

They should have let him spend another year in Sweden, then brought him along slowly.

Wasn't it Bolland?
- BiggE


He only played 35 games that season, so it was a switch between Handzus and Shaw. Chicago forward lines were and still are constantly in flux

EDIT - Just remembered that was the lock out season. In any case, Toews was really only the consistent top six center and it's been that way for a few years. They tried moving Sharp and Kane to center with lame results.

Actually, bank robbery isn't that risky, especially if you avoid banks without armed guards.


Bank branch employees aren’t trained to be heroes—they’re trained to be fully compliant with perpetrators, and are unarmed. In addition, banking branches usually have very similar layouts and procedures that can make it easy for criminals to plan their attacks. Because of this, more than two-thirds of bank robberies are completed within three minutes or less, and oftentimes the criminals are so stealth that banking customers may not even be aware that a robbery is taking place until after the fact.

When you factor in the high success rate of bank robbers in the U.S.—just 10 percent of all bank robberies fail—then you’ll begin to understand why criminals opt to commit these sort of crimes. But, short of keeping your money under a mattress, just remember that there are at least some ways to avoid being involved in a bank robbery

What do you think the thoughts would be on here, if the Flyers had signed Cammalieri?

Most of the time it's just a simple note passed to a teller that they have a weapon and to give them cash. Definitely stupidity because they almost always get caught.

they get away more often than you might think

however, the hauls from bank jobs really arent even that much. insane to risk that kind of jail time for a score that wont even buy you a nice car afterwards

The contract is an iffy one and honestly, the Flyers really had no need for him.

I work in the security industry and am highly involved with banks. They get caught more then you think.

Well I would guess that the thoughts would turn from he's a clutch scorer who scores when it matters most, to the Flyers signed another older top free agent, and they shouldn't have. But it's great for the Devils.

I deal with crime on a daily basis and the amount that get away is shocking to me. The problem is they keep trying to press their luck and do more jobs.
