Good luck to you Etem, this could be one of your last wake up calls... Time to answer the bell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'NucK™ Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 With no waiver pickups and the Rodin injury, I was worried management had decided to stick with Etem... this means that either Virtanen stays up or Skille is signed, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.B Cooper Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Gaunce is ready. The kid was a beast in camp. Sure Etem just had a baby, but that seems like more reason to work your ass off to get that job, not an excuse for poor performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where's Wellwood Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Which means that, barring any cap related reasons, Benning likes Skills more than Pulkkinen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 I hope Etem clears - I like a lot of things about his game - but he didn't exactly command a spot and that's the bottom line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaBamba Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 I don't understand what the delay was? Why wouldn't you dilute his exposure by putting him on waivers yesterday? If he must go on waivers fine, I'm just having a hard time understanding the timing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VIC_CITY Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Oh well. Nothing against the guy but guys like Etem are a dime a dozen. I don't think he'll get claimed but if he does, best of luck to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also look at it the other way that most teams have their 23 man roster set and don't want to tinker on the eve of season openers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
