12th year left wing Tanner Glass(15) made quite possibly the oddest move after playing 527 NHL games, including 16 last season with contract club Calgary Flames, decides for his next adventure in pro hockey he’ll head overseas and join the somewhat famous Boxers de Bordeaux of Ligue Magnus.
The veteran of some 73 fighting majors becomes an assistant captain for his new club and it would be little surprise to see him up his scoring output in France’s top league.
He’s played away from home before.
During the 2012/2013 lockout he skated 6 games in Slovak Extraliga for HC Banska Bystrica.
You kind of have to wonder what the 34-year old is looking to get out of this experience.
Maybe he’s looking to explore the sites and history of his new adoptive home.
