Cool cool

Fine by me......as a 13th forward.

Let's hope Adams gets someone a bit better to play full time.

 

[Royal Thunder]

Love it, someone who can actually play defense with some skill too

 

[Dingo44]

He's a fit. I'm sure he knows the situation and it's a one-year deal. Quinn will be back at some point and the dream would be one of the call-ups plays well enough to push Jost back down to 13 when that happens.

 

[Sabre Dance]

I’m waiting for the roster improvements.

The day is still young, but there may be some bad news for you.....

 

[Jacob582]

dumb.

(At least he wants to be here)

 

[sabresfan129103]

Really glad they brought him back. I always got the feeling that he meshed really well inside the locker room which was probably a big reason they signed him (and his on ice play was pretty solid).

 

[allsilverdreams]

Why not just qualify him?

 

[yasky]

I take it back.....

 

[Gabrielor]

I'm fine with it. He fit.

 

[DapperCam]

$2m seems kind of high for a 13th forward, but I liked how he played last year.

 

[VaporTrail]

Cool..I would have been with a 2 year deal as well...Good 4th liner

Fine with this move. Vets on one year deals tend to bring it night in night out. The fear of slipping into irrelevance is a superb motivational tool.

$2m seems kind of high for a 13th forward, but I liked how he played last year.

I look at it like this:

He's a former Top 10 pick who is only 25 years old. He showed a bit last season and I look forward to seeing what Granato can do with him now with a full offseason, preseason, etc to work with.

 

[Husko]

I don’t get why they didn’t just qualify him considering what they signed him for?

I like that too - keep him motivated and we know that he gave them some things after arriving on waivers that were the feature of a guy who could see the end of the line.

 

[Dingo44]

I don’t get why they didn’t just qualify him considering what they signed him for?

Because he could go to arbitration and get even more. This way they know what they're paying.

We can send him to Rochester safely now. No one is picking him up ln that deal.

I can’t tell if you’re joking but it’s a good point and may come in handy.

 

[old kummelweck]

I was fine with this signing if one of KO or Girgensons didn't come back.

 

[HaNotsri]

I can’t tell if you’re joking but it’s a good point and may come in handy.

I'm serious. I think we sort of used this with Hino? In an unrealistic dream scenario of mine it's the same with the Johnson deal. He'll be with the NHL squad but will be waived during rotation.

This. Thought he had good energy, showed some skill, happy with this one.
