it feels like the better question is does he want one if one means he's going to charlotte. if he's amenable to that idea in the short term, he has certainly played well enough to secure it. but the reality for a player in their mid 20's is that they may have 4 or 5 good earning years remaining of their athletic prime and waiting around to get an opportunity is a younger man's game. he's outplayed guys we slotted as first call up by a wide margin, but he's entrenched in some serious depth to climb further. if he's not on the 23, it might make more financial sense for him to continue his career in europe.
I’m somewhat confused as to why he took a pto with us. One of the deepest defences in the league is going to be hard to crack. I can’t see a guy his age leaving Europe to ride the bus in Charlotte. Perhaps he didn’t receive any other offers or he is open to playing in the ahl. Hard to judge without knowing his motives.
