Yay! I really think he's a solid 4th liner. I know of someone in the nest who's going to be plenty happy about this move.

Good move. Slater looked better in the PK role as the season went by. Why do I feel every off-season that Slater is about to have a break out year?

Would 25pts from a 4th liner be a surprise?

Don't you mean ball?

I'm so happy he resigned. He's not stellar. He also doesn't suck. I'd rather have him than an aging past-star that craps out in a Thrashers jersey.

Good guy, he needs to help with the PK this season, seems to be his strong suit!

Damn, I love Jimmy!!! At the beginning of the '05-'06 season he impressed me and I got his name on one of my jerseys. I took it to a practice to get him to sign it and he was ecstatic that someone had gotten him on a jersey. He thanked me like 3 times and it was kinda cool to see how much that made his day. He is an awesome center imho. He has his moments and is definately perfect for our 4th line (gritty with some scoring potential).
