Wonder if he'll get a fair shot at making the Preds roster. I hope so.

Grant was a pleasant surprise on the ice with his forechecking and ability to play defense at even strength and on the PK as well.

Grant gave up the enforcer role his last year w/ the Phantoms. He was given the "A' and decided to be aplayer. His only notable fightst that last year was in a brawl in Hershey and then a last-ditch effort to fire up the team in the playoffs in a fight w/ Bonvie...he wore his welcome out.

He's not gonna fight a lot but he's a decent role player who as was said, can play the PK, and be responsible in his own end.
