#17 Mark Cullen Pos: Center D.O.B.: 10/28/78 From: Moorhead, Minnesota Height: 5' 11" Weight: 190 Shoots: Left Drafted: Undrafted Acquired: Signed as a Free Agent by Detroit 7/5/07 Personal: Plus: Great On-Ice Vision... Good Passer with Soft Hands... Skilled Offensive Forward... Minus: Needs to Add Muscle to Avoid getting knocked off the puck... Not a Natural Goal Scorer... Injury Prone... Organizational Comments: What GRC says: 2007-08: Cullen had a season to forget as injuries and a horrendous slump derailed a promising start. The slick playmaking pivot was just returning to form with 10 points in 6 games when he blew out a shoulder and closed the door on his season. Cully struggled defensively at times, and seemed a little uncomfortable as one of the revolving captains. Unlikely to return next season, Mark was rumored to be headed to Europe. Fall 2007: A Big Scorer in College, Cullen has found his touch at the AHL level the last two seasons, and should be expected to anchor the Griffins first line.
