Do you know how long he has been in the NHL Assistance Program...seems like about 6 months.
I am aware.
I am also aware he started training and should leave it soon.
He's high risk high reward except the risk is only when it doesn't really matter anyway.
If he doesn't work out, he's out in 2026 at the latest, which coincides with the time we would be looking at contending.
If he works out, you have your linemate for Demidov and Dach/Newhook/FA/Trade.
