"Jaroslav (Modry) is a steady two-way defenseman that will bring us leadership and experience down the stretch," said Holmgren in announcing the trade.

Quote:

"I am definitely excited," said Modry. "I am going to a solid organization with the chance to win the ultimate goal. My season, all of a sudden, has turned around. It is a great challenge for me, and like I said I am very excited.

Quote:

"I bring experience, intensity and I am able to move the puck well out of our zone and make our forwards create chances. I am a solid defenseman and am able to play against the best players from the other team, and keep them from scoring goals against us. I think I can help the team get better. I can step up and play special teams, too, and be able to chip in and do the right stuff out there."

JAR-MO be there!

Good for him, because you could sure tell how disappointed he was when Dallas traded him to the Kings at last year's deadline.

I was going to same the same thing...

Good for Modry, but

his new team.

I'm glad for the guy. He'll now be on a team that isn't hurting for a tough D and he can just go in there and do his own thing.

Intensity?

Did He Say ****ing Intensity????

**tom91381** · February 19th, 2008, 09:10 PM

I wonder if he said all that with a straight face?

**Rob2716** · February 19th, 2008, 09:46 PM

Since no one on the East Coast watches West Coast hockey anyway, there is a possibility that people will believe him.

And then they'll watch him play.

HaHa! Yeah thats what I thought. Say Jaroslav Modry and the first thing that crosses my mind is INTENSITY???!

More like steady.

I don't know, seems to me that going to a PA team is the last stop before quietly retiring...Palffy. Didn't Checkmonik(sp?) go to one of their teams?

Admittedly, I don't keep track of the whole league (barely keep track of the Kings, that's why I joined LGK).

*ps, for some reason I can't spell today...it's broken.

He makes his Flyers' debut TONIGHT!

Eastern Conference, beware, Modry is there!
