Odd thread for this comment, considering this guy is a forward. Aho replacement, I'd guess.

Guess this is our McKegg replacement, but I don't know shit about this guy. @Sens1Canes2 scouting report on this guy?

Main thing I remember is he was a big part of the hot start the Devils had the other year. Had 11 goals in their first 23 games. Then he scored 1 goal for the remainder of the season. Seems to be capable of filling in if needed at the NHL level and giving a little production.

Brian Gibbons, Peter Gibbons younger brother who once worked at INITech but got out after Milton Waddams set the building on fire.

Wonder if he's actually Brock McGinn's replacement. He's got a Derek Ryan vibe.

Oh shit, it's our Ferland replacement, any UFAs named Bolton we can team him up with?

Well.....since we were solidly in the tank pretty much the whole season, I really didn’t watch too many Sens games.
He’s fairly small but really really fast. He can score, goes to the dirty areas and is in the right place/right time a lot. If he was on the 4th line for 10 games, I think you’d notice him a lot more than a lot of other Checkers. And if he played 60 games I think he’d score 10 goals just because of his speed.

Did McKegg sign somewhere else? I must've missed that. A shame, I liked him.

i remember really liking his jump when he played for new jersey and thought they had a solid bottom six guy. interesting sign for us because he hasn't played in the ahl since 16-17, which seems to indicate that we've given him some assurances he can compete for a roster spot aside from that being non-explicitly stated in his contract guarantee. the problem is that he's so damn tiny. it matters less than it did maybe when he was first trying to break in, but it's still a factor. he's not quite skilled enough to play up into your top 6, he's an absolute blazer in terms of speed. part of the reason he's been used on the kill in previous stops. maybe a midget patrick dwyer when he was still effective? not overly physical, but he's smart and he shoots a high percentage. a 14.5% career shooter over all stops. i would wager a good portion of those were breakaways. great also because there's no real downside to having him be your 13th forward in times where you're fully healthy. he's a professional and he can jump in and out of the lineup and play his game without trying to do too much.
