Looking at what Tampa just paid for Gourde and Bjokstrand this price seems better
2 1sts, 2nd and Esyimont

and we got double retention, so he counts for 575K.

People keep calling Frederic a 3rd liner but we lack net front presence in the top six and should roll with him. McDavid could bounce 10 extra goals off him and he's already a better option for Drai's line than Arvy/Podz/Skinner imo

Savoie-Drai-Frederic might be a great future line given their styles.

Agreed.
Being in the top 6 worked quite well with Maroon and Frederic has better hands so it seems like a no brainer to me.

Jones gets his first game tonight, he's a huge guy. I hope for a positive impact.

He seems like a true energy player.
Someone who is going to stir things up which (along with size) is an element this team badly needs.

I think part of the reason why the Oilers have been so bad protecting the net front and so bad with their puck management is because they are just so emotionally flat. They arent emotionally invested enough in the game...just like at the begining of the season.

Players like this help to emotionally drag their team into games and its not like he hasnt been an effective 4th liner in the NHL before. Prior to this season he averaged over 12 min TOI and averaged 60 games per season.
I believe he can PK too,

So he does have some NHL quality game in him to go along with his size.
The adrenaline should be pumping for him tonight.

Loved the game tonight from Max Jones. He was hard on the forecheck, fast and showed a FucjinQ pulse out there.

Breathe of fresh air in the bottom 6. Let's hope he does not ride the press box too often.

Obviously he Is just a 4th liner, but great game in his roll.

I couldnt agree more.
Jones impressed me. His play with and without the puck went way beyond my expectations.

If this game is any indication then he was a steal.
