When the Montreal Canadiens announced they had signed Bobby Farnham to a one-year deal last summer, there was some apprehension. He had a history of reckless behavior on the ice, never put up a ton of points, and was generally a player that didn’t do much to help his team win games. Coming into St. John’s this year the 28-year-old would be counted on to be a leader on a very young squad, and that meant changing his game to benefit the team.
From the outset it was blindingly obvious what Farnham brought to the table for the IceCaps.
