For those wondering why we signed Lemieux, this is why



Fuck Tom Wilson

    Honestly can’t see why anyone would have any adversity against this signing.

    He has footage on footage of himself beating the brakes off people. The goon is almost extinct in the NHL but it’s nice to have one on a cheap deal. Even if he never swings a single punch. Players will think twice about pushing around certain guys with him on the ice.

    I was hoping we would make a push to get #43.

    Yea I’ll take Wilson instead. This is like the “Wilson at home”

    ETA: I’m just shit posting guys, relax. It’s a good add. Wilson would be sweet tho.

    His fight with Manson a couple years back 👨‍🍳💋
    Knocked him into the next month lmao

    Finally we got pests and goons I’m so fucking hyped. Heel turn confirmed.

    I have a feeling this sub will bitch and moan until this guy blows up Jack Hughes or somebody one time and then the sentiment will change

    Maybe Lemieux and Orlov will keep some of assholes in the league off if Jarvis and Aho’s back.

    Those guys got it pretty rough this past season; especially Jarvy.

    We got him so he can get punched in the face more by Wilson?🤣

    He also beat the shit out of Gudas earlier this year, and he’s well known for his beef with the Tkachuks.

    Not to mention the slew of other big hits he’s dished out. I remember him absolutely destroying Guentzel earlier this year with one.

    He equally deals out to other enforcers and stars alike lol

    A lot of players in fights help their opponent when falling so their head doesn’t hit the ice

    Lemieux looked like he was trying to brain wilson

    I’ve never been more impressed than seeing somebody put somebody else in an armbar on skates.

    This is one of my favorite signings in a while. The guy we’ve needed for years. Now this is a group that’s ready to take the next step in the playoffs.

    We do love anyone even vaguely ginger.

    Long time needed. We have so many skill players at every position we need that equalizer on the bench.

    It also helps because most other teams stack skill as well. If they get a bit rough it’s nice to have this threat on the bench. I’m not saying we need to return to old school hockey fully. But, the leagues bizarre inability to notice or call some pretty egregious penalties in game says to me the league still relies a bit on the teams to self enforce play.

    I dislike the concept of needing an enforcer, but glad we have one

    Necessary evil. Need to protect our skill players.
