EternalCanuckFan Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Can't hurt to add another C prospect under contract. Focht could still surprise as a depth forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the latter, look at every single prospect contract across the NHL and come back when you find out that all of them have the same term.....3 years.

Phil_314 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Does this guy fight? Hope he does, would be fun if the commentators make the low-hanging "he sure Focht him up" comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beary Sweet Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Thrilled about this signing. Has the potential to blossom into a bottom 6/role player for us. Most likely will start in Utica and can’t wait for him to take the next step in his development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil_314 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Haha you guys are going to be disappointed, according to commentators his last name is pronounced "foat", quite similar to "folk" or "float". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Hoping he turns into a good bottom six guy who's a pain in the *** to play against. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Costmar is more likely to be that guy now, but hopefully Focht too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully both. Would be nice to have some cheap homegrown players who bring that element. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can be depth call up and kill penalties. Guys where you can plug in your 4th line if there is an injury. Nothing wrong with a player playing like Gaunce did if they are drafted in the 5th round. Gaunce was a first rounder, so it is seen as disappointment, but as a 5th rounder, that is pretty decent value. Not great, but not bad as you get some NHL games out of guys like Gaunce.

VegasCanuck Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 I'm guessing the timing on this is so that they can send him to Utica for camp as its extremely likely that the WHL doesn't play this year and they don't want him to lose a full year of development.
