Devils sign PL3

love the guy but this has to be about bringing him is for his locker room presence in Albany. Not sure he's even got the talent to play regularly in the AHL at this point although odds are the team isn't any good so I doubt he has a hard time getting ice.. Heart of a lion but damn.

i mean, of course...but i still feel like this is a troll job by Shero just because.

 

I'd love for him to get in a few games next year and for John MacLean to start his part of the broadcast by holding up $10,000 and saying 'Pierre, here's what you cost me, I won't ever forget it'

before I look?  He an ex Penguin?

I'm guessing 75 - 25 he was.

 

Yes he was.

 

Still shouldn't see the ice for that stupid instigator when the team was short handed few years ago.  Doesn't matter how good of a fighter you are, you just have to know when it is needed(that was definitely not the time).  Yes it is needed at times, yes you can't be a liability on the ice.  PL3 didn't do either well.   

 

Maybe there will be some deboer - clarkson magic and Hynes gets PL3  3 goals.  Wouldn't shock me a this point, already in shock and have no idea how this season will play out.

I will admit, I always like the guys who are brought in for punching faces. But, in today's NHL, you need a guy who can do that and still play the game.

PL3 will likely not see the Prudential Center this year, I'm thinking Albany will be his home for the year.

 

Honestly, it's not even punching faces anymore. It's just twirling in circles, hugging a guy until one of you falls down on the other.

That's because most of the career tough guys don't make the NHL anymore, or they don't last.

Some of the sluggers in Coorslight's link being exceptions.

Gotta have these types of players for the AHL franchise to protect the young'ns, IMO.

I attended quite a few Phantoms games this past season (the new PPL center in the Lehigh Valley is pretty sweet) and I gotta say, the whole "honor code" NHL players speak of seems a lot less prevalent in the AHL.

I think you need these types of players to punch those Rinaldo-types into line.

My everlasting memory of PL3; I was in attendance at The Rock that night and was going crazy:

EDIT:

 

Not sure if they ever crossed paths again before this; but here is another PL3 vs Janssen round.....this time in the A!  5 years and a month after the first epic one!
