Flame Fanatic had this to say about him after the prospect camp

Right of the bat, he became my favorite invite from day one. He’s got a lot of attributes that make me like him. A lot of tenacity, battles for the puck, great skater, and a really good accurate shot. I’m hoping he at least gets offered an AHL deal, as he was easily the most consistent and biggest standout for me. I’m not sure if he has NHL upside in any role bigger than a Jesse Winchester utility style forward who is good at a lot of things, but none good enough to stick (if even that much), but I’d like to take a chance on him.

Thanks for the help! Much appreciated!

Here is what I wrote in the dev camp thread

Josh Jooris - In my opinion he is the most "AHL" ready and talented of the UFA's at camp. I like his skating ability, vision, and size. I would definitely offer him an AHL deal if that is something he interested in, but I would imagine he would prefer to go and play a fourth year at Union in that case.

He was easily the most impressive invite at camp in my estimation.
I am interested in seeing if it is an NHL deal or just an amateur contract.

Really? Well, we just let a bunch of AHL forwards walk (Aliu, Cameron, Kolanos, Testwuide) not to mention Carter Bancks never accepted his qualifying offer. He's a right shot too so that's a (small) plus. I'm not really expecting much but hopefully he can provide some spark for guys in the AHL.

The AHL group should be interesting.

Byron - Reinhart - Nemisz
Elson - Granlund - Hanowski
Ferland - Street - Jooris
Eddy - Bancks - Howse

Breen/Cundari - Billins
Wotherspoon - Sieloff
Martin - Ramage

Berra/Ortio/Brossoit

^ Is Carter Bancks quitting pro hockey and going to school or something?

Who knows? Maybe he figures he won't get a chance with the Flames and wants to try somewhere else (they did give him two games last year). He's a heart-and-soul guy, but at an AHL player at best.

Yeah that's why I was thinking he'd maybe play University hockey and get a degree if he wants to go down that path, haven't heard anything about him being added to a University roster though.

I remember hearing Kerr pronouncing his name as Churros, and he instantly became my favourite player to watch during the scrimmages.

(Well that, plus I was going to post "Who?" but you got here before I did.

There are a couple very good reasons to decline a qualifying offer since a QO for him would be a 1 year deal @ 616,00 (NHL)/~60,000 (AHL).

I would say Bancks is looking for 2 years of possible with a higher AHL salary. He likely knows he won't be an NHL regular, so stability in the AHL will be key for a player of his ilk.

I was wondering how that last name was pronounced.

I wouldn't have guessed it would be like "Jorros". I was guessing "Yor-ris" or "Jewris" or "Jor-rus".

Clarification from the cousin would be nice.

Delete thread for now moderator

Wait till its official please

 

[Lunatik]

I hope you didn't step on anyone's toes kid. If this isn't official and the NCAA thinks he has an agent he could be declared ineligible to return to play for Union.

 

[WhereIsIt]

Yeah I don't think this post from shaner89 is enough to get him in trouble. Still might be best to close it though.

 

[InfinityIggy]

shaner89 is Jooris.

Do you seriously think the NCAA wouldn't allow to him to come back because someone said he's his cousin and he signed?

Josh Jooris to be signed? Part 2: REVENGEANCE

Looks like this rumor had some legs after all. It's not official but even the kid's coach has made comments that seem to assume that it's actually happening.
