Good to see!

 

[roccerfeller]

Nice. Have high hopes for this pick

 

[None]

There was some speculation this season that he was going to switch to junior hockey, I wonder if that's his destination for next season or if he's going straight to the Moose.

 

[SM]

Surprising. Wish he was healthy so he could rip it up with the Moose on the hunt for the Calder this year.

 

[DEANYOUNGBLOOD17]

That makes him available for AHL playoffs, but I believe he may still be injured!

 

[snowkiddin]

His contract doesn’t begin until this fall anyway.

 

[DEANYOUNGBLOOD17]

What chl team holds his rights ?

 

[Guardian17]

Awesome!

 

[bustamente]

Well at least we don't have to talk him up for a couple of years only to find out that he doesn't want to play here

 

[macmaroon]

Wow, that was unexpected! Maybe there are changes coming to the Jets lineup for next year...

 

[SUX2BU]

Congrats Lucius

 

[snowkiddin]

What chl team holds his rights ?

Think it’s still the Portland Winterhawks

Why would they put him in the CHL, he is going to be in the AHL next year, especially after the success of Perfetti in the AHL at 19. There is no chance he would have agreed to leave college just for them to put him in the CHL next year.

 

[jetsv2]

This will add something interesting to the Moose next year.

 

[Guardian17]

His contract doesn’t begin until this fall anyway.

I think he can sign an Amateur Tryout Contract to play with the Moose for the rest of this season.

An Amateur tryout (ATO) contract exists in the NHL, the AHL and the ECHL. This type of contract is for players who are leaving college and attempting to turn professional, are done with college or are graduating from the junior leagues. An ATO is a very common practice near the end of the professional seasons as they go deeper into the year than college or junior schedules.

Nice to see.

[I'm going to guess that no one on this forum has ever watched "Jimmy Two Shoes", so I won't make an obvious reference to this signing.]

I do remember that show from my more youthful days. I know the villain in question

He can be loaned to the CHL rather than outright assigned and because he was drafted outside of the CHL he'd still be eligible to go to the AHL at any point if the WHL ends up proving below his level.
It could just be 20 WHL games where if he's 1.5PPG they call him up to the Moose.

Well he isn't as advanced as Cole for one and has missed a lot of time theist two seasons. The AHL might be a bit above him but that is what camp in the fall will let us know.
