[dash]

Phil is gonna see this and ask for two more.

/edit - #100

Phil eats that and it will bring new meaning to the phrase "Kessel run"

Safe to say it will be longer than 12 parsecs

Wasn't Briggs a 1st rounder?!

Technically, but Leafs first rounders hardly qualify as legit first rounders.

Do you have a team in the ECHL? Cuz thats where he is heading.

Reminds me of one of my favourite "Man vs. Food" lines. Dude was eating a huge sausage (stop laughing) and he says "meter in, meter out".

I think Biggs makes the 4th line. Pens need bodies to fill out 4th line and the kid is ready...

He screams Eric Tangradi to me. Sheary just got an NHL deal, so he and Bennett are the fourth line right now.

Tangradi had 18 points in his lowest scoring AHL season (in only 34 games). That is more points than Tyler Biggs has in his entire AHL career.

LOL...bennet and the midget on the 4th line?! Ugggg...So put Biggs on the 3rd line with Sutter Move Kunitz...I can't see Sheary being anything special

Are you reading what people are saying about Biggs? He was in the ECHL! He's not making the roster.

I think he was the real steal of the deal.

I still really like the kid...call me stupid but he's got skills. I believe he was also in the AHL

Are you sure Tyler Biggs is who you think he is? He's a winger who had 15 points in 108 AHL games.

Not denying that he has skills, he just has yet to put it together in the pros. At all. If he pans out, great! Icing! But the reason he's included is for contract limits really. He has to prove it in the AHL first, and has yet to do that.

He went to the ECHL during the season. But at this point anything is an improvement over Craig Adams on the roster.

If he shows anything in WBS first.

 

[scoutyjones2]

Pens need big bodies, and he can at least do that and was pretty successful on the world stage and in the playoffs for his teams

Did you see the team that won the East this year? They had Boyle and a lot of small speed guys. You don't have to have some big bruiser to be successful. Even Chicago isn't a huge team. And LAK were on the sidelines this year with all their big bodies.

If he plays for WBS, he will be making his line mates worse.

Seriously, who the fuck do you think Tyler Biggs is?

Nonis? Is that you??

Tyler Biggs hockey statistics and profile at hockeydb.com

10 goals in 108 AHL games. Are we really talking about the same guy?

LOL...Hopefully it probably will be with the AHL filler they just signed today anyway.
