Good news but I'm assuming he can't play in our finals games because the contract doesn't start till the fall?

Probably for the better since it's a 2 year deal.

Some good news finally! Let’s keep these vibes going next Tuesday.

Right, we don't burn a year off his contract by letting him play a game this year.

How many more games does Bing have? We can sign him to an ATO for the rest of the year if we want.

i bet they're figuring out right now if he wants to do that or just relax

Truly amazing how he turned from a 7th round nobody into one of our top prospects; I know he’s still yet to prove anything in the NHL but between Davies, Bratt & Talvitie our late-round drafting has been extremely promising recently.

Excited to see what this kid can bring to the table next season.

Well, he may want to finish his school year too.

BTW, is this new?... I've been having to wait like a minute between posts.

They are trying to ween you off before the season ends, no one wants to go cold turkey.

 

[None Shall Pass]

Yeah there's still another month-ish of classes at most universities. Might as well finish.

 

[Nubmer6]

OK, now that he's signed, I guess we move on to stressing out about Walsh next signing next year?

it's new, and reminds me of the old hf



i HATE it

 

[Nubmer6]

I'm still not sure if this is wrong or not.

From Chris Ryan:

The Devils also avoided exposing him to the Seattle expansion draft in 2021 by waiting to start his contract until 2019-20. Since Davies will have two or less years of pro experience at the time of the expansion draft, he will automatically be protected.

So much for finishing classes, I guess

He still might do that - Wood and Santini returned to BC after their NHL debuts in 2016. If the Devils don't plan on sending him to Binghamton, he could practice here all week and then go back to Boston on Saturday.

This is very good news. Davies' upside is very similar to that of Will Butcher, though I consider him a stronger skater. He's extremely smart.

This is a huge victory for the entire scouting department of the New Jersey Devils. In their first two drafts (2016, 2017), they have a 6th-round pick as a regular on their second line (Jesper Bratt), a 7th round pick looking like a future mid-pairing D (Davies) and another 6th round pick as one of their top prospects (Aarne Talvitie).

With Davies, Smith and Walsh in the fold, our defence should be a position of strength in the future. Davies was a huge find for us, we'll see what he can do as a pro.

Funny how we have had about as much success with late round picks as early round picks recently. Castron and company have a huge draft coming up for our organization, they simply cannot blow the 1st rounder this year, we need a gamebreaking talent. Hughes and Kakko are easy choices but if we are picking 6th or 7th, we need to nail that pick.

Great news! I think he absolutely has Solis 2nd pair potential.
