Good for him! He won't be high up on the prospect depth chart but he may get an NHL audition before several other Marlies due to his advanced age. This is very unusual to see a player flame out badly during his entry level deal, then earn another NHL contract.
He's only 24.
I wouldn't call him "advanced age."
Has had some ups and downs by the looks of it but from everything I've read and what people are saying - he has earned this contract.
I love players like this! Nothing more dangerous than a guy with something to prove.
I really wish him great success.
