Prospect Info: Will Borgen (2015, 92nd) – '17-18: Signed ELC, Reporting To Rochester

[Zip15]

Botts was at the game in Sioux Falls. Seems he recognizes the importance of getting Borgen signed after SCSU's season ended.

I'm glad Botterill is there so he can be there to console Borgen with a contract immediately.

Also maybe trying to get another viewing and get an offer to Brickley since Minnesota State was at the same regional (and of course they lost too!)

 

[WeDislikeEich]

Really hope Botts can get Borgen signed.

I feel like if he goes back for his senior season it's pretty much a forgone conclusion he turns UFA.

Botts in full pick up artist mode at this point.

"We really liked how you use your stick when you don't have the puck. Which is good, because you never have the puck, amirite?"
"You play such a great, simple game. Like, sometimes you just want to be like, do something, Will. But nope, you just keep it real simple out there."
"Yeah, we really liked how you looked at the Olympics."

“Hey kid...sorry about your upset loss...I know it must be devastating. Say...how would you like to lose some more this year...but get PAID to do it?”

 

[cybresabre]

"Yeah, we really liked how you looked at the Olympics."

NHL caliber for sure

 

[DolanPlsGoSabres]

NHL caliber for sure

I mean, he was able to do his job at a higher level than Antipin!

Whoo hoo! I wonder if that was a two-for-one and if so even better. Great job Botts!

 

[Doug Prishpreed]

f*** yes!!!!

Way to go Botts!

Great news if true.

Willb Orgen.

 

[Der Jaeger]

Sabres fan first comment to good news: "Is this guy on twitter legitimate?"

 

[Ace]

He can’t sign with the Sabres and go to Rochester. So he signed an ATO? No one else has this but given our local sports media that means nothing

 

[Revelate]

He can’t sign with the Sabres and go to Rochester. So he signed an ATO? No one else has this but given out local sports media that means nothing

He can sign an ELC for 2018-2019.

If Botts got him to sign without burning a year, that's a job well done imo.

 

[Doug Prishpreed]

I’m excited to see him play in the playoffs. Should be a big boost to the blue line.

I’d love to get a look at him and Guhle together at even strength

If Botts got him to sign without burning a year, that's a job well done imo.

If he got him to come out without burning a year it also says a hell of a lot about Borgen who opted for the better development opportunity over the earlier payday

 

[Snippit]

I haven't seen him play since the WJC but I'm very excited.

(Also if you read thread, says Judd Peterson joining Amerks As well)

The curse that our own draft picks won't sign with us, is f***ING DEAD! Ty god, we need as much skill on the back end as possible! Especially someone who has actually progressed. Step 2: Daniel Brickley, LHD.

 

[Ace]

What’s the over/under on how long until a Buffalo media member has this.

I vote two years after he retires.

 

[Dingo44]

This guy is supposedly a St. Cloud insider and has both Peterson and Borgen heading to Rochester.
