Happy with this - similar numbers to Neumann in junior. Playing a regular AHL 3rd line role last year so can obviously play on both sides of the puck.

Great ✍️ 25 goal lad right there his accolades and numbers are similar to Deluca if he translates to the larger ice we’ve picked up a gem a lot happier with this signing.

At last a forward who they say is a shoot first guy!! I'm feeling pretty good about the roster now, have a good feeling for the season ahead.

We've just been discussing his numbers on WhatsApp.

There's definitely a lot of potential here. His numbers weren't great last season, but his USports numbers are very good.

As with most North Americans, it will depend on how his game translates to the bigger ice.

He has the potential to be a real star in our league.....Happy with this.

Regards

Was stuck playing 3rd/4th line last year, shut down role. What's pleasing is that (despite it's limited use) his plus/minus was even. Certainly suggests he's a smart player who can adapt, so expect much more offense than last year suggests on paper.

Welcome to Sheffield Mitchell.

Looks a decent signing. A good age as well. Hope he makes a big impact.
