Red Wings sign Patrick Eaves

Meet the newest Red Wing. He's the one in the foolish hat:



Unfortunately, Patrick Eaves has kind of slipped under my radar, and all that I've learned about him in the last 15 minutes is that he is a little injury prone and thankfully doesn't look like Joe Corvo (seriously, those tattoos are silly.) His stats are a bit underwhelming, but stats aren't always the whole story, and the Red Wings have a habit of bringing out the best in its players. I guess at the very worst, if he underperforms, he can be the new scapegoat. We'll need one now that Sammy's out borking with the Sedin twins.

Is it time for hockey yet?
