Confirmed with Link: Jackets claim Fabbro off waivers

[Viqsi]

Admittedly, I am very sour recently. Especially about the team.

I have a hard time believing Fabbro is as good as he’s being billed as. Maybe he had an excellent season a few years ago next to *checks notes* Roman Josi, but was that because he’s actually good? Or was it because he played with Josi.

I don't think the distinction actually matters because Zach Werenski.

Interesting, shouldn't be too hard to get in the top half of that list.

A new series of summer polls (or maybe during this 4 Nation thing) idea could be choosing who the best of each number was. Some will be pretty obvious but most could lead to good discussion.

Well, the obvious way to do that would be a countdown to the start of next season. Assuming, of course, we can handle multiple polls at once...
Or run the prospect polls during gaps in the countdown polls...

Have never watched the player very closely before, but based on what others are saying it seems like in the best case we picked up a reliable partner for Werenski or Mateychuk long term. Nice pickup, excited to see how he pans out here.

I really hope Fabbro fits in well with Werenski and those two form our top pair for the foreseeable future.

He is a UFA at the end of the season.

I know. "In the best case" includes him doing well and re-signing.

I noticed that Fabbro had an assist last night and a goal this evening. How has he been performing for you all? I regret that we let him go for nothing more than cap space.

He's been fairly solid, getting better as he gets used to the team and system. I hate that they reconfigured all 3 pairs after his arrival and created chaos but that's not on him
