Confirmed with Link: TOR sign Jimmy Vesey (1 year, 900K)

[supermann_98]

Put me in the "who cares" group with this signing. This guy turned us down when he was a FA and now after being mostly a bust he comes crawling back for near league minimum hoping to cash out if he catches on a line with Tavares or Matthews? Get outta here

 

[Leafidelity]

Meh...he was terrible in Buffalo! Like terrible!

20 points in 64 games and a +12 on the Sabres?

Doesnt seem at all terrible to me, especially for $900k/1 yr

 

[Once]

Damn we’re going to be a much more dynamic team to play against. We’ve added some legitimate size to our bottom halves, and guys who compete hard.

We’ve regressed since signing JT. I do think we will see a steady incline as the core matures and management (Dubas) recognizes the importance of players ala Muzzin, Simmonds, BOGO and the like. Real excited for next season, whenever that may be.

Another great move by dubas

guys on fire with the draft and this entire offseason

let’s wait and see how the season goes first tho

he didn’t finish for a long stretch but he wasn’t that bad. On a team with a lot of bad.

 

[The Podium]

Meh, don’t love Vesey but he has some untapped potential. Might be a solid player to lineup alongside JT/Matthews

 

[Anthrax442]

Dubas Derangement Syndrome is real

SHANER A DUBAS FAN BABY LETS GOOOO

I mean he had seasons of 16, 17, and 17 goals with a decent to mediocre Rangers team. Yeah Buffalo May have been a struggle but how many players go there and don’t struggle to succeed?

If he can regain that success with an old teammate in Kerfoot and our offence we won’t miss the expected 20~ goals from Johnsson as much.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Hope Vesey is motivated to do more of this as well as pot a few goals.

 

[al secord]

Does Vesey do anything well? Never been a fan.

 

[Havoc]

This guy never scored less than 16 goals playing with the Rangers.


This is amazing depth for 900k. He can rotate between 2nd and 3rd line.

6'3 as well for the size peeps

He's good at being the son of one of our scouts.

He's just waiting for game 1

Even a shortened season must take a toll

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

He's good at being the son of one of our scouts.

pretty sure his dad was brought in as a scout to try to lure Vesey in free agency, not that they're just signing Vesey to make one of their scouts happy

 

[Dekes For Days]

Love this signing. Thought he'd be more expensive.

 

[Stephen]

The guy is a dime a dozen third liner. Which is what we are trying to stock up on. So it makes sense...

Would have taken Corey Perry at that price point but what can you do.

Well, it worked... eventually.

 

[Menzinger]

Guess that means Nylander is on his way out the door.

The Dreger special lol

 

[SprDaVE]

This is getting interesting...

I have no idea what to make of this signing. He's a good depth option.

 

[Judas Tavares]

First game, Vesey misses a pass. "Vesey is trash". Matthews then hits the post. "Matthews is trash".

 

[Sonofamitch]

Have a feeling Engval or Kerfoot are on the move. There’s way too many forwards lol.

I can see him scoring 20 if they go vesey-JT-nylander

Dont rule it out

 

[Guy Boucher]

He's played tough minutes in his career with some pretty terrible teams. I think he has more in him than he's shown so far.
