Fine I guess. I’d say there’s a 50% chance he ends up getting waived after training camp. He’s a good 5th centre and allows Poehling to play in Laval if he doesn’t make the team out of camp.
Not excited about this signing. I feel like his biggest contribution will be to take opportunity away from Poehling.
Poehling has to earn his opportunity, if he can it will be there. That being said, Montreal is in win now mode and we are trying to win now, not force young players in positions they aren't ready for.

I don’t think it takes away from Poehling. He should be playing, so being the 13th forward isn’t good for him. If Poehling does make the team it will likely be on the wing, since he isn’t beating out Evans.

I can't really complain because It's a low risk signing. I just don't see what he brings to the table to justify not looking elsewhere. If you know what I mean.
