I know he was TB property, has anything changed?
Fritz is without a contract at the moment. Hope the TB or some other team signs him. He won't play in the NHL but it would be awesome if he returned to the AHL.

alright! Phantoms are going to be fun as heck to watch this year. Not to mention traing camp when these guys will be fighting for a spot on the team.

I've always liked Grenier ever since I saw him play in Hartford. He's huge (6-6, 260 lbs.) and he is a great fighter. I had him at #1 in the AHL last year. Even thoe Fritz beat hime twice to Grenier's 1 win I still believe Grenier is a better fighter. Hope he makes the big club!!!

The Grenier signing was indeed confirmed.

Martin Grenier:
29-4-8 (AHL)
Notable wins:
Trevor Gillies, Eric Godard, Mike Brown. Brandon Sugden (2x), Josh Gratton, Colton Orr, Mitch Fritz, David Koci (2x), Garrett Stroshein, Riley Cote

3-0-0 (NHL)
Notable wins:
Matt Johnson and Cam Severson

This should prove (as if it needed to be) that Grenier can throw em'. Most impressive is that win over Matt Johnson, he was a ligit NHL heavy.

And both TSN and Sportsnet are reporting it as well.

As I don't get to see them much if at all, I was wondering if Eager was a better hockey player than Kane. From what I've read, both are disturbers, but Eager drops the gloves more. But I was just wondering if Eager had more skill working for him too.

Boyd Kane is a penalty magnet.

Yeah he was always in the box for Hershey whenever he came to town last year. The fans gave him a lot of **** for going to Hershey.

Yeah he was a disapointment to me.I knew he wasn't really a fighter but was expecting more body checks.

BTW Phantoms are gay.

Hey I was just workin' down at the Chester County Airport in Sadsburyville doing HVAC stuff this week.Nice weather for rooftop work. Thought about driving all the way down the Oak Street Projects to score some crack.Or I could have just asked a City of Coatesville police officer to hook me up.

Eager is a much better skater than Kane, which is Kane's real drawback and why he will never be a fulltime NHL guy. Eager's skating allows him to go for the big hits he does. Eager also fights much much more than Kane, although they'll both turtle and duck fights.
