Bringing in Awada was simply right place, right time. He is living here, we have two massive injuries to deal with and bringing him on short term will help.
I doubt we would be bringing in anyone if he hadn't been here as in a previous press release Doug stated the players would just have to step up. So this isn't a case of splashing the cash, simply a former player willing to help out (for a price of course).
Not sure what shape he will be in, or how much ice time he will get. But he will bring leadership and guidance to the team. Might take a few games to get going, but he stated in a UTV interview he has been skating most days since he left.
Good to see the Giants contributing to the downfall of the league again. :lol: Doug would have been downright stupid not to bring Awada in short term, when he lives down the road.
