Devs4LIFE Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 I've been hearing people saying that as of now the devils biggest weakness is that they don't have any solid centers. They say that Zubrus is better on the wings, well if I recall Elias is pretty capable of playing center but if that doesn't do anything for you, why don't we sign this guy Jason Allison. Thoughts/input on the topic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halfsharkalligatorhalfman Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 he did have as many points as gomez last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizDevil30 Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 I thought Allison retired. I remember him holding out waiting for the "right offer" a couple of years ago. And then he kinda disappeared. Maybe Souray should take a page out of his book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharifijanov2099 Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Allison has publicly stated he will play for very little money and has averaged almost a pt per game over his career. I'm sure some team will sign him. You can get him for 2 million, I'd say, and some team will benefit from his services. The knock is that he is slow and might just be a PP specialist. Still, the points are there. If we didn't have Zubrus/Zajac, I'd say yes, however, we don't have room for another center, unless he's a 4th line center, which Allison is not. Additionally, we'll probably try to develop Pelley at center on the 4th line to replace Madden in a few season (2 more yrs left on Madden's deal - he will be 37 when it expires).

Devs4LIFE Posted July 11, 2007 Author Share Posted July 11, 2007 He wasn't in the 06-07 season because of personal issues, but I don't think this guy would be a bad pick up even if it was to throw him in the minors and use him as a backup.
