true, but maybe giants are after a cheap tough guy? mcmorrow is more on the expensive side?

He certainly looks cheap, Not that big, Not that tough and has not played for ages.

he will be a decent enough tough guy, looks like he likes to throw some punches and the LNAH is a very tough league and he was in that league for several years

He certainly looks cheap, Not that big, Not that tough and has not played for ages. Wrong, wrong and wrong again. Brunel is tough, damn tough! Yes he's only 6ft but he has a 220lbs frame to go with it so he'd have plenty of strength, maybe not the same reach as a guy like Sawyer but that's not everything, do you not remember Dody Wood? He didn't play last season because of a hand injury so yes he may possibly be a little cheaper but Barry Nieckar had a serious hand injury before coming over here and he wasn't too shabby.

Hardly wrong, wrong and wrong again.
He IS not that big for an enforcer, He HAS only played 1 game since 2007. He maybe tougher than I gave him credit for but 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

Well actually you are. Wrong, he wont be that cheap as he's an AHL experienced enforcer. Wrong he's plenty big enough at 220lbs. And definitely wrong as Brunel is a very tough minor league enforcer. |

Correct he wont be expensive. (He has played 1 game since 2007. No coach in their right mind would offer a big lump of salary to a player with that background).
Correct he is not that big. (He may be more than big enough to be an effective enforcer). I never argued that but the fact remains 6 foot is not that big.
Wrong. Thirdly after looking further into his background I did admit that he was tougher than I had initially given him credit for.
Oh look I just admitted I was wrong on something I said....

With Brunels past experience he would command a decent salary. He has a wealth of experience of enforcing. You go on about size being a problem, Rushton 5'11, Domi 5'10, Wood 5'10 not that big but enforce effectively

Not once did I say his size was a probelm.
Never mind "go on about it".

you wrote
'Not that big'
'He IS not that big for an enforcer'
'Correct he is not that big. (He may be more than big enough to be an effective enforcer). I never argued that but the fact remains 6 foot is not that big'
So that goes to prove you did indeed mention his size.

I did mention his size.
I did not say that he is not big enough to be an enforcer.

That does not mean he is not big ENOUGH to be an enforcer.

I understand that it is very evident that you don't have to be the size of Shmyr or Belak to be an effective enforcer. In your opinon what size should a enforcer be?

Post by Rob Scott on Jul 24, 2010 12:39:30 GMT
Any size they want.
That was never my point. Dody Wood was my favourite player in my 1st season at Panthers.
All I said was that 6foot is not THAT big for an enforcer. Rather than a lack of rheight I would be more concerned that he has played 1 game since 2007.
