I don't see confirmation anywhere.

 

[NYRFAN218]

I don't see confirmation anywhere.

CapFriendly had it as done, then said they got the wrong numbers, and now deleted that tweet as well.

Could lock this up I guess until something changes.

Here's confirmation:

Good. He had a solid defensive year.

 

[offdacrossbar]

like this.

defensive kid with an attitude and an edge

needs time to marinate

may well be a diamond in the rough

moar rushins pls

 

[FLYLine27*]

Cool.

We didn't get much reports on him during the season but he must have played well enough to earn a contract. At 6'4 almost 200 pounds, he's a big boy. Always good.

Apparently has some Ulf Samuelson to his game as well.

Hard to know how well the more defensive guys are playing. Glad to see they think enough of him to sign him one year after his draft.

 

[TheTakedown]

Damn, they are going ham with signing these recent draft picks. Good on Gorton -- growing the team from within

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Could be a 4, likely not much worse than a 6, probably settles in as a 5.

 

[Revel]

Watched him play a little bit last year and remember that he has a bit of an attitude. i.e. -doesn't like guys getting in the crease....will give them the business. Good team guy that is aware of his physical presence and not afraid to push people around.

 

[Igor Shestyorkin]

Meh, I don't see too much upside but he does add needed depth to our D pool and could be something one day.

 

[Ori]

It looks like a wolfpack move. I doubt he will play NHL this season.

 

[RangerBoy]

The SPC slides. The player will be back in the WHL. He is 19 and the Rangers get one slide.

 

[iamthewalrus]

You're a loose cannon Zborovskiy, turn in your gun and badge

Like this if accurate.

Just wish he was a righty! Lots of depth of the left:

McD
Staal
Skjei
Holden (can play RD as well)
Graves
Zboro

Hurting on the right.

Skjei and McDonagh can play on the right

Thought he was a righty?

 

[Ori]

yeah, maybe I need to be more optimistic - he is very young and promising.

 

[Mac n Gs]

He is a right-handed shot

 

[Charlie Conway]

Too bad he's a righty just for the fact that I would would have liked to see him and McI as a shut-down 3rd pairing. Would be cool to see a pairing of crease-punishers.

 

[GAGLine]

He's clearly right handed from watching him on youtube, but among the various websites, he is listed as both left and right. Even the Rangers website has it wrong.



Starts at :37 seconds

Beautiful assist, but wow what a fight

General Fanger has him listed wrong.
