Confirmed with Link: Canucks sign C Max Sasson to 2-Year ELC

Found money and with his speed and versatility playing the wing or down the middle, he could carve out a decent 4th line role for himself here. Hopefully he can play on the pk at some point.

Wasn't really on my radar, but I'm cheering for him, if just only because the interview of him watching his dad cheer him on was gold.

His interview after his 2 assist game a couple of nights was good as well.

The intriguing thing about Sasson, is something he alluded to in his interview. The game seems to be 'slowing down' for him.

In his first five games, he was moving at 100 mph and running on adrenalin. But now he's holding on to pucks longer, and finding either the trailer or the open guy. And he has the speed to back up defenders and buy himself even more time.

I still think center is his more natural position. But if he stays on a line with Blueger, then he can take a majority of the faceoffs.

Amazing to see Sasson score his first NHL goal, unfortunately it was the only highlight for the Canucks in their dismal display against the Bruins tonight. Got to keep Sasson in the lineup though, the kids a gamer.

Congrats on his 1st
