Good depth for the Wolves, I guess

f***ing Rutherford and his nepot... oh, wait.

"If we sign your brother will you take two millions less?"

 

[cptjeff]

Hey, why not? He's a fine AHL guy and could still develop into a depth call up guy. And if Jaccob is happy getting to have him in the org and spend time with him during camp, so much the better.

 

[Svechhammer]

More brothers = more wins, obviously

 

[HisIceness]

Chicago depth?

 

[CandyCanes]

Secretly this was a way for the Canes to funnel more money to Jaccob so it didn’t count against the cap

No. That will be the anonymous donation to the Slavin Charity by TD

Isn’t 450,000$ guaranteed a bit too high for a player like him??

it seems pretty high but if Chicago will pay it to get some older players, it doesnt really matter.

 

[tarheelhockey]

In all seriousness this is the kind of nepotism you can tolerate. Decently legit prospect, and it ties Jaccob a little more closely to the org. It’s like letting Jared Staal have a throwaway cameo, why the heck not.

I honestly thought it was a typo. He is not a top AHL player, although he did have a nice productive season at Rockford a few years ago

 

[bleedgreen]

Now do Nadeau’s brother.

We’ve e signed a few older guys this summer. Will never know but I suspect it’s for organizational depth but also to make Wolves management happy too.

Josh looked great at the Montreal rookie camp

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

Now do Nadeau’s brother.

He’s 5’8” 159lbs. I personally wouldn’t be in any rush to get him out of college. Unless he’s set on signing and doesn’t want to go back to school I would think it would be good for him to stay in Maine.

He's going to be at prospect camp, we'll see if he looks decent then.

I agree, but he’s obviously on the radar for more than just us. If he’s set on signing I think it should be us. I don’t know that I think of him as a pro prospect but I think he’ll probably be a solid AHL player, and he’s a righty center. Bradley may only spend a season down there so this would maybe be their only chance together.

I think he should go all four years and get a degree, but if he’s set on signing somewhere…

There's a good chance we're going to have a handful of one ways in Chicago at times this year. A high guarantee is no big deal. He's been a pretty solid AHL player.

Wasn’t talking about Slavin. I, and the poster I was replying to, were talking about Josh Nadeau.

 

[To Be Determined]

Didn't the slavins have some real tight family/friends in chicago going back to their time playing for the steel? Not bad to make good money in an awesome city with folks nearby that can give you that home-ish feeling.

I'm also cool if the high gaurantee is basically the canes treating jaccob and josiah like wcw agreed to deal with the macho man and the genius leapin' lanny poffo.
