I tried to buy one, but they told me it was on hold because a nail was broken.

Cholly: How much money?

Snow: Very little, but he will be a good prospect for us and add some things we need.

Cholly: Is he nice? I like nice people.

Snow: He plays hard.

Cholly: Is he mean? I don't like mean people.

Snow: Well, he is misunderstood and not treated fairly.

Cholly: As long as he's nice and not mean, and he doesn't do bad things like that Haley boy.

Snow: He will make nice and be a good boy, I promise.

Cholly: How much did it cost me again? I hope it is backloaded and has loads of incentives for being nice. Don't you wish we could have a whle team of Lady Byng candidates, wouldn't that be really nice Garf?

Snow: Can I go now Mr. Wang, I am getting hungry and I'm late for my sensitivity training class that you sent me to.

Did you ever see the movie The Natural? Tell me Wang isn't the judge, Snow isn't Gus, DP isn't Bump... etc. Only in this story Wang is trying to get all of his skilled players injured out by subjecting them to untold punishment without the ability to fight back.

Owen is just beginning their playoffs, so there's no telling when they'll be done, but from what I understand, he should be in Bridgeport before the playoffs.

OS is facing #3 Kitchener, I expect Kitchener to win so Halmo could join BST the earliest on March 29th, a day after game 4 (9 games left in BPT). Or if the series goes 7, he'd be available April 2nd(6 games left for BPT).

I thought Halmo was suspended? Does the suspension carry over to the AHL?

I don't believe so, he'd be suspended for the minimum of 4 games, if OS gets swept.

Once Owen Sounds season ends so does Halmo OHL contract.
March 28th or 30th at the latest IMO.

Owen Sound Attack eliminated last night 03/30/12 and Tickle Me Halmo is on his way to Bridgeport.

Yes! Looking foward to see how he does and should provide depth. He is also a Thompson type player so I wouldn't be suprised to see him succeed.
