Morrison is the type of D man that I like. Not flashy but he'll do all the shit work and you don't need to worry about him making as many awful plays as Sekera. I like whoever referenced him being a younger, slightly better version of Jay McKee and Im completely fine with that, but this recent activity does raise the "is something big coming" alarm I think. These were two moves nobody really anticipated, I never thought we'd sign another NHL D man or waive Kennedy and I have to admit it does have the feeling of something else happening.
And it adds some grit to go with Montador...just as long as Morrisonn doesn't blow a tire that results in a game winning goal for the other team
Yeah but shit like that happens to everyone at some point. Unfortunately it happens at bigger times for some people so its get hyped up and blown out of proportion. To tell you the truth, Darcy gets shit on alot around these parts, some of it warranted, some of it not. I don't think he gets enough credit for some of the good moves he makes, even though they're not flashy or blockbuster. Getting Montador for 2 years at 1.55 and Morrison at 2 for 1.75 is a fuckin hell of a deal of you ask me. You're esentially getting to steady, veteran defenders with some nasty for just over $3 million combined and the Pens just shelled out $25 million at 5 mil a season for Paul Martin whos goal career goal totals are 6, 5, 5, 5, 3, 2. Some teams overpay for mediocre d-men. Darcy underpays for underrated defensemen.
