Who's a better fighter? Prust or Tootoo?

IMO, Prust is more willing and has a better fightcard than Tootoo.

what's your point ? Based on one fight between the two, Prust has took on tougher customers and I think he's a much better fighter between the two, as for Jordin, How can you take anything away anything from him as when he does fight, he's pretty good as well. The guy is indeed a freight train and is a better hitter than fighter.

The Detroit RedWings will be a different team next year with Toot's in the lineup, and I hope and pray that they don't neuter him and let him play HIS game!

This is odd...and I am in shock.

maybe so but I'd rather take a punch from Prust than 22.

Prust fights like twice as much as Tootoo.

This just seems wrong...doesn't it?

I've always been a Tootoo fan, and it's obviously nice to see the Red Wings add some grit for a change. But this signing just gives me the creeps for some reason.

you and me both. I have this funny feeling the Wings plan on turning him into a *gulp* non-fighting checking forward!! yes I said it!!

[SyrCrunch11]

I think theyre gonna let 22 loose honestly. For all these years saying they want an enforcer, this guy is probably the best option because hell play. He can hit, fight for a little guy, and hes fast as hell. I think they need that wreckless abandon, like Helm just going at everybody in the playoffs. Energy is gonna be twice as high with him on the team and thats what Holland got, an energy scrapper who can play.

I was hoping for him, Konopka, Prust, or Parros, but Im def stoked

[Viper207]

Since Holland apparently has lost his mind... Krys Barch too, please.

[HordiBrusk29]

Barch would be a good fit for Detroit but that would be a huge stretch. Tootoo alone is almost impossible to believe.

[Maggie3and Me]

This will add a little more spice to the Hawks/Wings games.

Good to see the Wings add a player like him.

[Killah_punk]

So the Wings vs Preds just got better, Jordin Tootoo vs. ex-teammate and good friend Brian McGrattan.

Jordin must love money and really hate his former team.

Probably wasn't happy about being in the stands during most of the playoffs.

Different for Detroit.
