Delisle was former Leafs property, didn't know he signed on with the Ducks. Never know about him, though.

I'm a little surprised George Davis will be starting out in the ECHL. I figured he would be the Cinn. enforcer for this year.
:dunno:

how sad to be the only defenseman on the entire team to be realesed. I still think he was one of the top 4 ducks defensemen in the rookie tourny, but maybe thats just me.

It has to do with money invested into the 1st and 2nd round guys. Bill just happens to be a fifth rounder that they don't have any money invested into. ther for he's the odd man out. The cicny coaches told him that he was better then some but the hire archy (?) Likes the 6' 4" guys.

honestly I think that he is better off in Trenton for now. He will get much more playing time. BC screwed him by not playing him. He needs to get his A game back and Trenton is just the place to do it. And also he has more teams that can bring him up this way instead of just the one if he went to San Diego.

By the way, Bill scored for Trenton tonight in the Pre-Season Game against Atlantic City tonight
