How swede it is Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Isn't he the guy that injured 2 of our players a while back, or am I thinking of some other big body forward? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trebreh Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I think there's a decent chance he steals a spot on the 4th line, so this is a good PTO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Surfer Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I never thought the guy who broke out in Edmonton was the real slim shady? I do think he is an NHL player; great move! Jim is the real shady... 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess he's getting old tho. Chiasson is a nice add on a tryout. Solid move. Dude was solid in Montreal's run. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarjakd Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I'm good with this. If he can sign with us for cheap it would be a good Motte replacement until he comes back and Chiasson can chip in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is always hope for young guys, but every year most of them fail to grab a spot. With no Motte and possibly no Sutter to start the season I see Chiasson as a shoe in to be signed. We need some experience on the 4th line. Exactly my thoughts too... Just sucks for players like him caught in a pandemic.. Only the very top players get a handsome pay and most others have to scrap for 'minimum pay' jobs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabcakes Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 They don't necessarily sign for the team who brings them in on a PTO if they sign anywhere at all. I think PTO's are signed to flesh out the lines for camp and to give a guy exposure league wide. This has only happened because Motte won't be skating in camp. If we believe Ryan Johnson, they're not going to be placing a fringe veteran in the way of an opportunity for a young player who is ready. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris12345 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Looks like a great plug to plug a few preseason game qualifications. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Good scoring depth, but I gotta wonder if this somehow reflects on the likes of MacEwen and, to lesser extents, Lockwood. Of course getting a vet to be competent down to the 4th line is good, but with the injury I would've thought Big Mac gets a shot. Now instead he might be pushed out of the starting lineup again and not have the opportunity to prove himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyLow_ Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 We need a pk'er that plays center, we have about 14 more interesting wingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenny Blankenship Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 For some reason I’ve always hated this guy. Without a doubt my least favorite signing of the offseason 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RakuRaku Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Alright Jimbo, I trust that you can top this up with another PTO: Eric Staal Make it happen!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilduce39 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Nice little pickup for camp since Motte is out and a few others are missing at least to start. If he still has gas in the tank (only 30 yo) he could easily make the opening night roster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beary Sweet Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Good, pesky, physical player who can kill penalties and has a knack for scoring goals when it matters most. More competition for our bottom 6 and guys like Lockwood, Gadjovich, MacEwen will all be fighting for a roster spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
