I'm really indifferent to this signing to be totally honest. The positives, he's only making 750k meaning that he'll be hungry like Raymond was last year to play for a contract. If the kids are not ready, he's another vet guy that can step in and play.
The cons, I would of rather given a spot to the kids, but I do support the notion that the kids need to earn their spot, nothing should be given to them. And I still feel like this signing won't prevent that from happening either, if one or even two of the young guys earn a spot, I'm confident that room will be made to accommodate them. I also don't like that Seto has a history of being lazy, that's not a good example for our kids. But Hartley is the boss, and he has no problem benching anyone like he did with Galliardi last year.
All in all, this was a good move, but I don't believe that Seto will have much impact next season. To me, he's a more physical Nigel Dawes and I think he'll pot 20-25 pts next year. Hopefully he plays well though and he lands us another 2nd rounder in next years draft.
I think he's intended more as a Stempniak replacement than a Cammy one. I guess you could say we replaced Stamps with Raymond though.
