As long as we don't have to face him much..
It was cool when he was playing for us, but he can be a royal pain in the ass to play against

or at least he used to be, anyway. Just after we traded him to Pittsburgh for Stu Barnes, we hosted the Pens in a game I went to. Jean Luc Grand-Pierre was just playing for us at the time and I remember him knocking Matt into the boards on the other end of the Arena. You could almost hear the collision from where I was sitting. But Matt got up...started to shrug it off like it was no big deal. As soon as he turned around and saw the ref, he acted like he was in major pain and slumped to the ice.

I shed no tears when he left. His little 'acts' grew tiresome and I wished at times Ray would beat some sense into him.
