They probably will pick up a ban at some point, but I remember when Cam Janssen signed up, plenty of people from other fanbases saying he was a goon how will be getting banned, yet I don't believe he picked up any ban whatsoever? Spot on - great example of a very effective role player who brought so much to the table other than points. - which these morons shouting “goon” can’t seem to understand. Having said that I see Hunt producing more offensively than Janssen so if that’s the case we have one hell of a player on our hands Let's be blunt, incredibly effective though he was, and wonderful to watch, it'd hard to imagine a player producing less offensively than Janssen. I suspect Hunt will be shooting (literally) for more than 3 goals in the league for the season. As to how much he attracts the DOPS dice of doom, who knows yet. As has been said, "people" thought Janssen would be a frequent flier, but he never got anywhere near.

He played his required role very well though. Hunt will bring points as well as entertainment.

From the videos it seems he fights a lot and loses a lot.

I said he will fight him, in answer to the comment. But it’s great to see so many positive comments on this forum, it makes a refreshing change,

He may be like a Brian Jurynec. He was pretty small too and seemed to have a fight every match and always came worse off. He even lost to Robert Farmer. I remember his face looked like mince after he had a fight with Lepine

Obviously as a player Jurynec was utter crap

He'll score points & be a huge locker room presence whilst also boiling the wee wee of the opposition. Add in the protector in Gagnon & you have a nice ice presence going on.

Been a while,but the last hunt we had wasn’t bad,not that big either,not that big(about as wide as he was tall) but could definitely look after himself!

I well remember both Simon and James. Simon could certainly mix it a bit and if I remember rightly James was a bit handy physically if required. Import protection was sometimes the order of the day for certain Brit players but both were very useful in other areas of play.

Hi Spik I have consulted and to your left in the photo with Terry Kurtenbach is indeed James Hunt known also as James Elliott who I believe was killed in a motoring accident in Nottingham.

That sure is Simon Hunt on the left, and I personally can account for his feistyness have gone toe to toe with him in the school playground on several occasions. Sadly missed.
