Confirmed with Link: Keegan Lowe re-signed for 2 years

[Senor Catface]

Lowe is here as an extra body or if he suddenly doubles in skill a 7/8. Jones or Lagesson as our 7/8 doesn't help the team or their development. The AHL would.

People look for every possible reason to **** on the org over any little thing.

I'm pretty surprised this even needs to be argued.

This is something a lot of teams do. They keep guys longer in camp when they know their career peak. In this case, Lowe peaked at a 7/8/9 guy so he's kept longer in case of injuries or just to get more guys in the rotations. He'll likely be one of the last guys cut for that reason.

Lowe is useless. Too bad they signed him to multiple years to make daddy happy.

This is just dumb.

Obviously tongue in cheek in the last sentence, but the first one is true, and you know it.

Lowe is a depth defenseman, who will be in the minors, so if you can't be bothered with those, that's you're call I guess.

 

[killercookie]

what a f***en JOKE!!! he is a Bum of a hockey player.

 

[Jumptheshark]

from what I have seen of him, he is a step slow and is slow to pick up the pass at the NHL and at 25 it is unlikely that he will suddenly find an extra gear and have a burst of hockey IQ--his play is more suited to the AHL

Too slow for the NHL game, so I'm not sure what kind of "depth" he provides. We already have dmen down there that need the ice time and a few have already surpassed him.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

There you "people" Lowe on Waivers today

 

[PBandJ]

Consider my words eaten.

 

[ardsa]

Waived today. The discussion from last Tuesday when all of the cuts happened was moot. Thursday was the first day that players could be put on waivers. He did hang on for four extra days though. The Lowe house Sunday supper theory may be correct.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

LOL @ people thinking he was every gonna make the team...

Guess the organization no longer considers him a "depth defenceman" like you do. But that's your call, I guess.

So you're a causal fan who only concerns himself with the NHL team then by this statement? Or you don't understand what Depth means.

They wouldn't have signed him to a two-way if he wasn't considered depth..

Based on what just happened, I'd say you're the one who doesn't understand what depth means.

Obviously others have surpassed him at this camp.

 

[McBooya42]

But..but his dad....he's supposed to be on the flight...but nepotism is rampant guys...right? Right?

Ffs...

 

[Ol' Jase]

So a few more days of Lowe being on the roster opening day after he clears waivers and then this should be put to bed, right?
