Was this player signed for any reason other than to maximize LTIR space?

 

[LTIR]

Any relation to Tyler Wright? Or maybe even the Wright brothers?

I went to Google who this guy is, and there's a Cameron Wright, the rugby player, the basketball player, the actor, AND the author.

Talk about a jack of all trades and master of none :p

He's been a good AHLer for them. Playing on the top line with Savoie recently.

He was definitely signed for LTIR, but he's a bit of a late bloomer. 26 years old, but only going into his second AHL season. He just keeps getting better and better. Maybe a RW call-up option later especially if Lavoie stays in Vegas.

imo a signing solely for cap maximizing purposes

Also to reward a good trooper in the minors

Were gonna find out if this signing costs the Oilers Lavoie or not. Vegas is banking on it doing just that.

Why would it? Lavoie can be sent directly to the minors.
