Any chance we see him in NJ this year?
He only signed a 2-year ELC, it'd be extreme to burn one of them straight off just to get an undersized guy here that's probably not pro-ready, unless that was the only way of getting him here since the clock was ticking. I get we sort of did that with Santini and Wood, but those guys were a bit more highly touted and had longer ELC's too.
I dobut he would play the 9 games it would take for him to lose a year from his ELC. It will most likely slide to next year if he plays under that.
Then what was the thing with playing Santini and Wood to burn a year off the contract at the end of the season two years ago, was that just to burn a FA year off?
Yeah it was FA year im pretty sure.. pretty dumb thing to do
Any chance we see him in NJ this year?
Eh they probably needed to do it to entice those players to come, plus in Santini's case it probably isn't a big deal considering he's a stay-at-home defenseman for the most part anyway. They might have needed to promise Seney a year off FA too.
Let's not throw him to the wolves when he's not physically ready yet.
Brett is such a good hockey name
And wrestling too
Good signing.
What will people have to complain about though?
Well, we really didn't, our ECHL team did. Not much offensive talent for a Swedish forward, in 118 games he has 8 goals and 13 assistsMissed this. Apparently we also signed his teammate Alfred Larsson to an ATO. Maybe we can flip him for McDavid.
