For years, I've been waiting for the ACLU to meet its match. I think that day has finally come in the form of Alan Sears and his Alliance Defense Fund.



    Dean is a player who immediately adds speed and quickness to our roster, and that was a top priority for us. We also believe that he can contribute goal-scoring ability and instill veteran experience to our lineup through the strong success he has enjoyed over his NHL career.
