nux4lyfe Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 I won't believe it until Vintage co-signs it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonoman Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Speaking of which, he's already co-signed it in the existing thread under Trades/Rumours/Signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cripplereh Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 sweet he seems to be a scorer that we need! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YEGCanuck Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 The Canucks have had some very good "under-average sized" players in the past. Hopefully Carcone will follow in their footsteps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd. Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Can't go wrong with a free prospect. His numbers are intriguing doesn't matter that he plays in the Q. He apparently started playing minors late and was passed over in the CHL drafts. Signed with his Q team and lit it up. Late bloomer. Just like Dane Fox a few years back, he'll probably start in the ECHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nex is my ex Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 89 points in 66 games in the Q is nothing to scoff at... Good signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bur14Kes17 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Minor correction. Canucks signed Buzz McCallister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ossi Vaananen Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 It's good that the signing has finally been confirmed. I believe the speculation thread is going on a week old. Does he crack the Utica roster or does he go back for an overage year? He was at our development camp, so maybe Green saw something he liked. Free prospect, always good..

Bigturk8 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Can't seem to find a scouting report on him. Seems to have a nose for the net. Anyone know how his skating is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
