THEBIGGESTHABSFAN123 Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Seems promising. Should be a good add to Hamilton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTed3 Posted April 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Seems promising. Should be a good add to Hamilton. I don't know if he's promising, but it's a very low-risk signing. As long as it doesn't take the place of signing the likes of Vail... not sure why he isn't signed yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
31Careyprice Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 Known as a two way forward and a goal scorer, similar to Matt read or Kris Versteeg. The habs signed both Crisp and Carr which leads me to believe Vail will not be signed to a pro contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys like Fournier and now Crisp ahead of them is ridiculous IMO. I don't mind Carr, he seems better than guys like Crisp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind Carr, he seems better than guys like Crisp. I wouldn't be worried if the habs chose not to sign Vail imho. Out of the guy's listed I'd rate them base on likeliness to play in the NHL. 1. Thrower 2. Crisp 3. Carr 4. Vail 5. Fournier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEBIGGESTHABSFAN123 Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 I think Vail is way better than Crisp. Both the same age but Vail has a lot better numbers and is a two way forward(so is Carr from what I hear). Vail was voted one of the most underrated players and best faceoff guy. I'll take that over Crisp being big. Just my opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take that over Crisp being big. Just my opinion though. Agreed. I'd also put those guys in the order of Thrower, Vail, Crisp, Carr, Fournier. However, they're all young so lots can change. Wouldn't have pegged Bournival over Leblanc or Kristo a couple of years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeanCountingHab Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Even as a senior, any time a guy hits 50 points in an NCAA it's worth taking notice. A PPG NCAA career is pretty impressive, I like the signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammer_9001 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 From what I've seen of him, he's got a lot of speed and fully agree, he is a two way player. Mainly because he gets back to defend so quickly. His puck handling sometimes leaves something to be desired though. He's a pretty solid addition and a +4 player as of this post, but I wouldn't expect to see him go up this season. Not when you have the likes of Andrighetto, Hudon and Hensick on the team. Unless you are really desperate for a Left Winger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
