Will move this to the Hamilton thread later, wanted to see what others think of Whitney who played for the Victoriaville Tigres mostly as well as some time with Gatineau and 5 games with our ECHL affiliate in Wheeling. A former draft pick of the Hawks, 7th round in 2012.

He's a body for the last 2 games for Hamilton. Condon will play both games for sure.

Maybe they want to call up some black aces right now since the Bulldogs are out of the playoffs.

Calling up Condon so that they can let Price skip practice and still dress 2 goalies?

Otherwise, what would be the point of an ATO If he's not playing?

yes he's a body for the final 2 games and of course Condon will play both games, but I wanted to know what some of the Q followers think of him, if they think he's someone we would be interested in signing on an AHL deal for next season since we could use an ECHL goalie next year. I haven't seen him play so I don't know if he's something they might be interested in or not.

He gets the start tonight, so perhaps management is looking at him for ECHL depth next year.
