There's a reason why Etem hasn't been playing in the NHL.
He's not worthy of a spot. I'd much rather have 20 point Thompson, or Kyle Clifford there.

Hopefully Etem can be another Smith-Pelly, a guy who couldn’t stick with a team for a few years. Though I don’t think Etem is as aggressive and assertive as Devante, they’re the same age and Etem will damn sure be trying his hardest to earn an NHL contract.
And did you guys know that he’s from Long Beach? Did you also know that Matt Nieto is from Long Beach?

Sorry if I wasn't clear. That was @ several others, not you--your take was that new blood/rotations need to come in.

Does Voynov now hold the hockey player record for achilles injuries? Not a common hockey injury.
Wonder if he was playing tennis again.

Might really hamper his NHL return. Who wants a guy with chronic Achilles issues?

I watched Etem play a few games with HC Lugano last season in the Swiss League and he was a ghost, in the playoff he saw zero ice.
The best case scenario for him is to get a contract with Ontario.

Not necessarily. There are NHL caliber players playing in Europe. Although, Albi's review may point to it not being he...but we'll see.

Reign could use a vet like him to play with Sutter on the forecheck/shut down line that can also chip in some offense.

that's completely false
Dwight King was on our first goddamn line for crying out loud, yet he's lucky to get a PTO on a Pee Wee team; players being in or out of a roster has less to do with the player than how garbage your roster is
i think Etem can do as "fine" of a job as Clifford or Thompson or Brodzinski
but ultimately, none of those 4 should be on any roster other than Seattle

Justin Williams also had health issues. That trade turned out fine for us.
I'd rather Vilardi get fully healthy. If that means he's out until Christmas, then he's out until Christmas.

The last time someone was "out until Christmas" it was the end of their career.
