Could he be a Fox??? High level with small size? His resume is impressive and seems to be peaking..

 

[Cag29]

Is he a center?

Fox was a 3rd round pick. He went undrafted, that should say something about his high end potential.

Zuccarello and Yani Gourde both went undrafted so did Dan Girardi

Yeah, um, no. Oates, St. Louis, Kerr, Bobrovsky, Joey Mullen, Dan Boyle, Ciccarelli, and on and on were undrafted.

And, if you want to get technical about it, Gretzky was never drafted by an NHL team either.

By all accounts the guy will be an NHL'er best on his work ethic and sheer determination. It cost us nothing so nothing to lose.

Essentially made up for some of the draft picks spent at the TDL

Fox out produced him in college. Trivigno is a forward.

 

[Doctyl]

Am I missing something or does this place need a bit of a reality check on this guy. He was undrafted and had worse college production than Vesey.

I’m all for grabbing free assets, but this guy seems like a career AHLer.

Trivigno had 49 points this year. Fox's career high was 48 in college.

People love, just love, to hype these NCAA UFAs to the moon. Need a rocket ship emoji.

Trivigno is a senior.

Is someone penciling him in the top six or something? He's probably a 3rd line NHL player at best, but, by all accounts, he's a seriously determined SOB. And... it cost us nothing.

I saw posts about him being on the 2nd or 3rd line when Kakko comes back in another thread. This guy shouldn’t play a game this year with the roster we have.

 

[haohmaru]

Trivigno is a senior.

Your statement didn't have a qualifier and was inaccurate. I'm not comparing the two in any other way.

Oh wow. Yeah, no, that's ludicrous as deep as this team is now.

 

[majormajor]

Don't bother with statistical comparisons to Fox, Trivigno doesn't have high-end talent.

Do you compare D+1 players to guys in their draft year too?

 

[haohmaru]

If he turns out to be Vesey 2.0, who cares? He cost us nothing and we got a couple of years and 3rd round pick out of that signing. By all accounts that I've read he's an undersized guy with a chip on his shoulder and great work ethic. Doesn't sound bad to me.

Agree…. I don’t expect much from this honestly.

 

[cheech70]

Feisty guy

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Free prospect. Can’t see what’s not to like about it.

I didn't make the comparison - you did.

Trivigno had better numbers in college than Kreider.

	Games	Goals	Points	Goals Per Game	Points Per Game
Kreider	114	49	92	.43	.81
Trivigno	139	53	131	.38	.94

I'm not saying that Trivigno will come anywhere close to the success that Kreider has had, but draft pedigree and production at a lower league don't tell the whole story.

The bottom line is that Trivigno is one of the top college free agents, and we signed him. If he doesn't pan out, he doesn't, but it's a free asset that hopefully can help us, even if it's only in Hartford.

 

[eco's bones]

Pretty sure the Rangers wanted to sign Trevigno last year. Berard is small too. Both of these players are very aggressive and super competitive and if we’re going to have smaller players in our lineup that’s for the best.

keeping in mind as well there were other teams after him including the Isles, Florida and Nashville that we know of.
