The savior is here

Justin A. Cohn | The Journal Gazette

Relax, everyone, Michael Jordan is here.

The Komets signed the 5-foot-9 defenseman, who is 163 pounds, and he will be in the lineup tonight against the Cincinnati Cyclones.

Jordan, who is from Pittsburgh, had four goals and 10 points in 21 games this season with Danville of the Federal Hockey League. He's played three games at this level, with Allen of the CHL last season.

I don't know much about the guy, so I'm not trying to knock him. But this certainly isn't the splash we all thought was coming this week, is it?

The Komets have lost five straight.
