"I'm not going back there ( to Portland )", he adamantly told me after his workout. "Its not going to happen. I'll play whatever position they want me to play. I'm not going down".
Period. End of subject.
Gerbe is hungry and he's ready to show his coach, GM, and teammates that he's a fulltime NHLer. He will not shy away from the contact in camp. "I'm ready, lets go".
No offense to Kevin Dineen. Gerbe feels like he has proven all that he can in the "A". His skill set makes him top of the food chain in that league, and he wants to emulate Chris Butler and change his permanently area code to the "716".
He and his buddy, Patrick Kane, were pounding pucks at Ryan Miller today like it was nobody's business. Gerbs and Kaner were the last off the ice. Typical Gerbe. first on. Last off. Too bad Max afinogenov isn't wired like Gerbe. 61 would play like Ovechkin if he had Gerbe's heart.
Gerbe told me that he's cognizant of the surplus of talent coming into camp. He knows full well that Paille, Kennedy, MacArthur, Kaleta, Ellis, and Mccormick are looking for jobs. Doesn't faze Gerbe in the least.
Ouch! nice jab he takes at Afinogenov
