Martin isn't here to "react" to incidents that happen to our young players. He's there to make guys think before they attempt anything.

damn straight

I'm neither happy or upset They paid a small price for a player with a small role.

2.5m is not a small price for a 4th liner tough guy.

But the only people in the league who do dumb poop now are the ones who lack the capacity for thought, so what difference will it make...?

Don't like it but at least it's not catestrophic.

"Signed to protect young guys" is so goofy. He's not protecting them unless playing with them on the same line.

Isn't that what Babs like. Two skilled guys with a banger?


We want Matthews playing with Martin?

It's not that goofy.. No he doesn't have to be playing with them... Something he sees and doesn't like he can be put out another shift and have a word or 2 with the player.... Happens all the time.
- orienbrady22



So is protecting them by watching someone do something and then goes and says something later? Awesome.


Guys sitting on the bench does not stop stupid players from doing stupid things. Happens all the time.

Matt Martin's contract isn't one that will hurt us at any particular time. The Okposo, Backes, Ladd signings are the ones that bite teams in the ass. Everyone's upset, to me all good moves so far.

Where are you guys going for stats now? I was trying to find PK minutes for Martin and it's either basic stats or fancy stats. NHL.com is poop now for stats.

Sorry bro, you can keep being salty. Your hate for players won't change the fact that there's a reason teams sign them.

If your job, that pays millions, requires you to hit another player, is threat of a 30-60 second fight going to prevent that? Of course not.
