No, from his 3rd-4th? game in the NHL when he dropped the gloves with Martin Lapointe, I knew he'd be a stud. I can't believe we got him for Smoke.Patty Ice said:No, I knew he would be a beast (well at least on his way of becoming one).
He refused to play in Canada, so the Sens dealt him for something.Reaper45 said:I can't believe we got him for Smoke.
Why would'nt he do that?SensGuy said:He refused to play in Canada, so the Sens dealt him for something.

He told the Sens that he didn't want to play in Canada and he also said he would rather go somewhere else because of the Sens depth on defense.kingpest19 said:He refused to play in canda? thats the first i remember hearing about this. Can you elaborate?

I believe I'm getting this right. If another Sens fan would help me, that'd be great. I know that he didn't want to play in Canada.

He seems to be anything but spoiled.TheCoach said:I wouldn't want a spoiled little kid like that on my team.
I agree. Gleason's only going to get better. It's hard to believe that he's only 22.neelynugs said:ottawa's loss is LA's gain...this kid is gonna be excellent for many years.
I don't remember this at all. I can understand the Can - US issue though. At a 50% tax rate in Canada vs a 30% in the US I'm surprised that anyone would play in Canada.TheCoach said:Gleason made it known that he wanted to play in the US.
That and the fact that Ottawa was very deep on defense made him threaten to re-enter into the draft unless he was dealt.
He would not sign a contract with Ottawa so Muckler traded him for something.
And frankly, I don't care. I wouldn't want a spoiled little kid like that on my team.
Ottawa has the depth to give him up. Like it was said, this probably would have been the first year he cracked the lineup.neelynugs said:ottawa's loss is LA's gain...this kid is gonna be excellent for many years.
