6'5, he's going to be a beast on SY, no?

I think he gets QB3 just from a ratio standpoint.  Wilson battles Perkins for QB2, with Thorne as a dark horse, PR if Perkins wins, cut if Perkins loses (Perkins to the PR).  I can't see Wilson on the PR or QB3...

It's very bad if you're Terry Wilson's clipboard.

It's a 3 year deal for a set amount based on draft level. Essentially not a large amount above the $75K usual ELC. I think teams are limited on the max level.

Regardless. He'll be here for TC. Maybe he surprised and / or some or all of the rookies don't show well. If he wins a spot on the AR then great. Just a guess but I think he ends up on the PR, possibly 1 game IR to protect him from leaving. Yes he still has the option window after year 1.

Let the battle begin.

Good to see he finally came to his senses, but I am thinking his visa issues couldn't be resolved so he had no other football option

Just like Liam Dobson. Doesn't matter what brings them up here. He's here now.

What was the major change, last year to this year?

New GM?

New core players?

Oh wait...

I don't think we got the lights out goaltending we got last year, that literally stole us games last year, not so this year. Also, lost some speed in Ehlers and our 'depth' scoring was down 30 goals from last year. So if you're letting more in than you did last year and not scoring as much as you did last year, you're going to lose more games and that's what happened.

Rookie camp just got extra spicy.

Since he is signed, guessing he's getting the playbook, and will have time to get up to speed.

Whether it's a two or three year deal, he still has the option window, so there was that in his favour.

So after everyone's handwringing, he didn't miss any time at all.

I hope everyone gives him a chance to develop now.
