Does anybody know if this player is a free agent if so is he good enough that maybe we should look to sign him. I was looking for info on this player but didn't find very much I was thinking maybe somebody on here would know more. ps If this is the wrong spot sorry mods also if this don't have enough substance sorry again :)

Just under a point per game in the DEL, only 23, relatively big body, listed as "C/winger".

For some perspective, during the lockout season Giroux scored 19 points in 9 games in the DEL, Pominville put up 12 in 7 and Briere 34 in 21. Stastny and Wheeler were both scoring over a point per game too.

Plachta has 25 in 29, and I haven't seen him play but he does have a solid +15 and if he plays a good, decent physical and defensive game he may be worth a good look. Doubt he'd become a top-6 forward, he'd end up as more of a 3rd liner in the NHL which the Canucks have plenty of though.

Was in the Leafs orginization back in 2011, couldn't sign a contract and went back to Germany. Undrafted, UFA with no NHL team holding his rights. Natural two way center that can play LW as well. Big guy at 6'2 220, not afriad to drop the gloves.

Plachta gets the 1-1 goal in that set of highlights. Really the only thing I could find in good quality.
