A couple names have been floated around the local blogs as guys the Komets could possibly be courting as enforcers for the team this season.... Supposedly the guy they are talking to is looking for an AHL camp; but will settle on the Komets if need be. Kind of sounds like the K's signing of Jimmy Bonneau last season before Rochester came calling... Could be a very short stay if signed....

The rumored enforcers are:

Martin Grenier


Brandon Sugden


I dont know how much I would put into this because both players would qualify as vets and the K's have been reluctant in the past to sign vet enforcers.... Both players played in the KHL last season....

Firstly, how many vets do the Komets have signed? Second, do we even know yet how many vets a team can have?

It depends if the goalies count as a vet, which I don't think they do.

Dupuis and PC are the only two I can think of, so 2.

The first guy seems like a monster and I highly doubt he will be in a K's uniform at all. The second is more realistic.

This reminds me of the insurance commercial or whatever it is when the offer the little kid something and then shaft them with the "fine print". The Komets will sign someone and then they'll be gone..

Is a big name heavyweight really needed in the CHL? They had very few guys that were really tearing up the fight card last year, especially heavys. Maybe I have a bad prececption, but the CHL is the league where 6' Greg Pankewicz kicked everybodys butt for a few years, isn't it?

I know the CHL didn't last year, and would imagine they won't this year. I like when they don't restrict a team when it comes to goalies, cuz if you don't have a least a decent one you are screwed.

I can't answer that JM. We all have much to learn this year as we go through the season.

I just figured it was going to happen, so you might as well count him in.

You would think that the K's will announce Rob Nolan next, and then DeAnglis and Warner.

Maybe a surprise Veteran?

We'll see.

I don't think that story is totally true. He was cleared to play in the NHL after those 4 clubs decided to allow him to un-retire.

Sugden's story by a real writer.

Who in the CHL would he fight?

He would be the healthy scratch, or would just ride the bench every night.

Sugden would definitely be able to find some fight partners in the CHL, the off-season is still young and there will be tons of tough guys added before the season starts.

With that said I really doubt either of those guys play in the CHL next year, Sugden could likely find a contract just by the name Sugden, he is well-known and if he does come back to North America I'd expect him to be a AHL player who hardly plays. Likely he stays over in the KHL or maybe even the EIHL.

Grenier I think could find a place in the AHL as well. He was a tough prospect and still is, if he comes back I'd guess he ends up somewhere in the AHL very early in the season. He will likely stay in Russia as he is making more money there just like Sugden. They are getting paid NHL type saleries over in Russia, why come back to make jack in the CHL?

If the Komets are still seriously looking for a enforcer I'm sure they will look for a guy like Jonathan Tremblay or Kevin Cormier before Sugar or Grenier. There is also a few guys coming out of juniors this year.

Jaromir Olivier Legault is being rumored to be invited to the Komet's Kamp.

He could be the guy if he comes in and does his job and plays his butt off. Just hit people and play tough. He could fill the role.
