Confirmed Signing with Link: [ANA] Ducks sign Jake Dotchin [1 year, $800k]

[VoluntaryDom]

@Sky04 dotchin puts up numbers of a 3/4 dude but was glued to the Norris winner. He’s a bottom pair guy.

 

[VoluntaryDom]

Dotchin was so bad last season we ended up benching him for Sustr.

He’s still better than Luke Schenn

 

[DFC]

So Brewer, Sustr, Dotchin...

 

[Volica]

That's a lot of KFC.

 

[Alan Wake]

You'd have to think after being publicly outed for showing up overweight, he'd lose some of it.

We'll see, but glad we're not wasting a dime on him in press boxes anymore.

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

Sounds like you already know it is.

Wasn’t being snarky but you’re welcome anyway.

 

[Mikeyg]

6 whopper signing bonus confirmed?

 

[Dirk316]

He’s still better than Luke Schenn

Obviously haven't watched him he's an ideal #6

 

[These Are The Days]

Fat chance he'll make the Ducks team.

I laughed way too hard at this. Well done

I GUESS ANAHEIM IS JUST GONNA SLING ENOUGH SMALL CONTRACTS UNTIL ONE OF THEM STICKS

 

[One Winged Angel]

Not sure why you would think that.

What was the story with him?

If that!

Very odd to sign and waive him. Guess they intend to put him in the AHL for a bit on a 1-way contract.

Stop yelling at us

Until he shows up a bit lighter?

 

[KaseMeOutside]

Keep the fat jokes coming

 

[skyo]

He's old school, will be in good shape by december lol.

So Brewer, Sustr, Dotchin...

Brewer was like 5 years ago when we had a shit tonne of injuries and we traded him as soon as we got healthy...

 

[Schenn]

I thought Digiuseppe is good?

As far as oven baked pizza, I like Delissio better myself.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

 

[DFC]

Brewer was like 5 years ago when we had a **** tonne of injuries and we traded him as soon as we got healthy...

He was still Brewer.

 

[terranraida]

Stop yelling at us

I will not, and YOU CANNOT MAKE ME

 

[Duck Off]

since we're waiving him, that means he's going to SD, for at least a little while right? Would we have had to waive him if we wanted him on big club?

Either way, I'm fine with it with Holzer's injury. Ideally he goes down, plays well, and then he or Welinski replace Sustr. Schenn has been fine as a #6. Struggles with quicker teams, but honestly he's been much better than I expected. He's basically what Bieksa should have been last year. Sustr has too much Bieksa in him, meaning he plays like he's Orr and jumps up in the play way too often. I actually really like Schenn in the 6/7 role.

 

[I am Canadian]

This guy is a real POS, beware western conference

 

[Getzmonster]

I get the idea that he's a low risk gamble with a little upside, but BM typically doesn't waste much time on out of shape or unmotivated players, it's surprising to see him on this side of things taking one on.
