I can't understand why but ok

I hope it's for training camp competition only, if Sokolov or Crookshank or even centre Logan Brown can't beat Ennis the Menace for a job then they are not ready for the big show yet.

I already prefer Parker "Chris" Kelly over Tyler P. Ennis for the 4th line/reserve forward role as I expect them to carry a full 23-man roster.

 

[Mark Stones Spleen]

Brady replacement.

 

[cudi]

liked his game when he was here last time, and DJ's clearly a fan. I bet he makes the team.

 

[IranCondraAffair]

He never should have re-signed with Edmonton to begin with. He was 30 and was coming from an Ottawa team where he was on pace for 45 points. He was a good fit. Stayed in Edmonton and his production got cut in half.

I suppose he was probably betting he could win a scoring line role alongside McDavid and Draisaitl and parley that into a big fat contract extension. Oh well.

We could do worse as far as 13th forwards go. We know he can be benched all season, he won't cost anything, and he knows the expectations and style.

I have no issue with this. Plus it is a PTO, not a contract offer, so if we look good in camp, we're under no obligation to sign him.

 

[MrInvidious]

I am fine with bringing in the right veterans to help the young team we have but this just feels like a move from last off-season.

At least Ennis isn't Gudbranson.

 

[The Devilish Buffoon]

I can't understand why but ok

We have like 9 fwds under contract who aren’t eligible for the Calder, what’s so confusing? Barring a trade for one, bringing in a winger on a PTOP was a given

 

[Liver King]

Lmao

 

[Bileur]

Meh

 

[Icelevel]

No

 

[SpezDispenser]

Thumbs way up. Would like to just sign him actually. Endless motor and can play up and down the lineup.

 

[Tuna99]

If he could change his last name to Seguin that would help a ton

 

[dumbdick]

I'm okay with this. Hopefully he creates a bit of competition for spots and maybe gets a spot until the deadline.

 

[Dionysus]

Not a bad vet to bring in on a PTO. Sens are thin on the right side.

 

[TheDebater]

Brady replacement.

Puts pressure on Brady to sign or he loses his spot if he misses camp.

 

[Blotto71]

Thank goodness I was still buckled up.

Last time Ennis was here he really was a leader, the team went to war for him. If Brady wants to play hardball, let him, when the team rallies around Ennis and he becomes the leader of this team Brady will cave and sign long term at a reasonable price.

 

[Sun God Nika]

This team never learns

 

[Langdon Alger]

This team never learns

It’s a PTO. What’s the issue?

[TheNewEra]

i dont mind the pto. We do have 1 other spot available. I just hope if ennis makes the team it is pushing a reasonable player out and not us big braining it

 

[Xspyrit]

And it begins.

 

[SensFactor]

Good depth move. He has experience which this team needs

 

[Alf Silfversson]

Meh. It's fine on a PTO. He played well last time around. He can kill penalties. He costs nothing. Let him give it a go. At worst he will be a good presence in camp. We're pretty thin at forward too, so he has a good chance of earning a two way contract.

Nothing to write home about and nothing to get too angry about.
