Predators sign F Daniel Bang

[caley]

According to Capgeek, the Predators have signed Swedish forward Daniel Bang to a 1-year ELC. I hope he makes the NHL based on his name alone.

It would be cool for him to play on a line with Ryan Thang.

It's pronounced like "Bong."

He's a big winger with some nice wheels. Doesn't mind traffic, wins a lot of puck battles. Has pretty nifty hands and a hard shot.

That's not exactly an un-funny word over here either.

And Bob Boughner was also pronounced "boogner", but it didn't stop me from calling him by the much funnier and likely pronunciation.

Calling Radek Bonk again anyone?

[CantbeatzPekka]

if he ever makes it to the NHL ill have to get his jersey so ill have a Bang and a Bonk jersey, lol.

[Eighteen]

His stats doesn't say much tbh, better then that. Useful in all situtations, BP, front of the net in PP. Great wheels.

Just as long as he doesn't play like he's hit a bong

Would be funny if he hit someone. "Huge hit by Bong!"

[landskronala]

He plays tough and really enjoys using his body. Lots of heart and intensity. Puck skills are okay.

[mirimon]

If he doesn't make it onto your NHL roster next season, please send him back home. We'll really miss him in AIK. He's as Systemfel described above, he's stepped up his play in the playoffs two years in a row as well. He's much more useful than his numbers show.



Good luck against the Coyotes, with or without A. Kostitsyn and Radulov, you have a really strong team (Halischuk and Tootoo ain't the worst set of reserve forwards out there...). I had a great deal of respect for Poile, Trotz and the rest of the Predators management before this, but I gained even more now.

... that's awesome

[Pellegrino]

Nice. He was so heavily linked with Chicago Blackhawks so I thought he would sign for them. Could be a decent 4th liner.

BANG!! Dominos

good stuff

[Legionnaire11]

When asked to comment Ryan Suter said "This signing is a huge distraction to the team, he should have waited until July"

surprised if he ever reaches NHL ice

[Top 6 Spaling]

I wanted to make the Bonk and Bang joke...but I was too late

[bottomofthefoodchain]

He's like Sjöström, but worse.

[adsfan]

Can Nashville get a guy named Bing?

It was a Bing-Bong-Thang play! Good luck Terry Crisp and company!

It ain't over until it is over.

[token grinder]

We need to draft a guy named chitty.

[worstfaceoffmanever]

Should be good depth for Milwaukee. Then again, a lot of folks probably thought that about Joel Ward at first... I know I did.

ETA: "Ryan Jones heading into the corner, and oh, what a massive hit on Bang!"

In Soviet Sweden, Bong hits you
