I have no opinion on this because I have no idea who this is.

 

[member 290103]

He will be sent to Utica to play every tenth game so he can develop.

 

[Tryamkin]

More or less an AHL signing. He could probably play in the bottom pairing at some point.

 

[Laterade]

He was at our prospects training camp

 

[BROCK HUGHES]

Late bloomer...

 

[canuckfan75]

Rick Dhaliwal (@DhaliwalSports) | Twitter it is a 1 year deal

 

[canuckfan75]

so he is a free agent after 13 games??

 

[Laterade]

He played with Hughes during the prospects game as well so maybe he gets a look with quinn

 

[FroshaugFan2]

If his NHL contract starts this season, then yes. It's possible his contract doesn't start until next season.

ELC length is determined by age. Teves is 24, so he had to sign a one year ELC.

 

[Melvin]

28!

 

[passive voice]

ya know we're happy with our depth with the brisebois and the teveses

Edler, Hutton, Hughes, Joulevi, Brisebois and Teivo. so how does this help the team? RHD, Tanev, Biega and Stecher? how does this help. someone please explain?

You don't sign a guy like Teivo expecting he'll be in the NHL anytime soon, and between the NHL-AHL and injuries each side should have 8 players on your depth chart.

They need 9 LHD not 5. Edit: also likely means McEneny is done with the org. Kid can’t stay healthy

 

[Blue and Green]

Haven't seen the details but I'm guessing that this deal is for next season and he will join Utica on a tryout basis. There is no reason to have this guy in Vancouver right now; the Comets might actually be able to use him.

PS, he's a right-hand shot. EDIT: Nope, hockeydb.com error, he is a lefty.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Free asset is free asset

 

[micquarters]

Nope, heading to Van.

 

[FroshaugFan2]

His contract is for this season according to Patrick Johnston. So the Canucks streak of burning a year off of college signings continues.

 

[canucks20]

PS, he's a right-hand shot.

No he is not

 

[TruGr1t]

Another weird move.
