TheRussianRocket. Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Overager playing in the WHL with the Moose Jaws. Has 49 goals/99 points in 61 games this season and scored 5 hattricks in his last 8 games. LHS who plays left wing. He's a BC native from Nelson, has good size at 6ft/200lbs, and most importantly...PLAYED FOR THE MEDICINE HAT TIGERS LAST YEAR!!#*%^$&@ZOMGZZZ!!!!! ...I'm no mathematician but seems like there are some pretty good odds we possibly land him. Another experiment which would be a low risk move. Currently sitting at 47 contracts, there is definitely room to ink him down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ilya Mikheyev Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 No loss. Decent size and speed. Wasn't drafted because of an injury I guess. Wears the A for Moose Jaw. I've never seen him play, but sounds like a potential free prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we tried Fox and thats all but done now lets give this kid a try. Doesn't hurt to give him a couple seasons in the AHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRypien37 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Overagers putting up big points/goals is nothing new. Have we not learned from Dane Fox? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ossi Vaananen Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Too bad his name isn't Mike... get it! Mike Hunt say that 5 times fast. I saw one of the EDM guys tweet this out too, I think it's all the Canadian teams. Fox didn't work out, and I worry that might be the precedent for potential over-agers. That being said, Sautner looks like a steal. I trust in this scouting staff greatly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learned what? That it absolutely hurts an organization to sign a free prospect at no cost? Lol. And Fox has been doing great in the ECHL. Only reason he's not in Utica is because they have so much depth at forward especially the wings. So they sent him down for him to get regular minutes.

Hopefully some bodies get moved TDL and he gets a call up. Would really like to see what he can do at the next level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desiboynux4lifee******* Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 HAHAHA stop Benning just stop, but why don't we give Dane Fox a freaking chance already, the kid has done what he was asked to do, eg improve his skating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Jay 22 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Can't hurt to take a flyer. If he's interested, I see no reason not hash out an entry level contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theminister Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 I've seen him play lots. Not excited. Maybe if he signs an AHL deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
