Former champion and future Hall of Fame GM Mike Fairhead was not a happy camper after his team dropped a lackluster 4-0 decision to the New York Islanders the other day.
"This team isn't playing the way I want it to play!" fumed the alcoholic Alberta native. "Shite sedin piece of fork bollocks!! I've been a GM in this league for many years now! I've fork dominated it for stretches of time!! I deserve some answers and for some money!!! WHO IS DOING THIS?!"
Well, who knew the cure to his problems would be veterans Brad May and Jassen Cullimore? Called up from Lowell of the ZPHL, these two former Devil greats returned to the OHL with a bang tonight as the Devils easily dismissed the Ottawa Senators 5-2.
Another player making his season debut was backup goalie Ty Conklin who stopped 17 shots for the win. Brad May played 6 minutes and was +1 while Jassen Cullimore was +1 in 18 minutes of ice-time.
A vintage display of GMing from the former champ.
"That's right", said Fairhead before ordering another bottle of rye.
