Maybe, but if he improves his skating you never know. I've always liked the hard working blue collar players plus it sounds like he can score. Bonus.
Hes a good player and him being 18th is a good problem to have.

See and this is the type of selfish shit that needs to go. If you are hurt, heal fully and return effective, you are no good to the team crippled.
All he did last season by playing hurt was make fans criticize his play.

Yep, I expect him to have a better season, but like the article said, he was replaced by Patrick which should've been a wake up call to Hakstal to. Players need to quit being so overly tough until playoffs start.

He is 6'2" so it may just be the angle off the camera of how tight his crouch is.
He can be "Papa Smurf" height so long as he keeps the puck out of the net.

I like this guys style a little better, plus he just looks ready.

Definitely some logic to what you're suggesting in terms of not having to make a decision about signing him to another long term deal at age 30. Just look at the current Simmonds situation...
You could sign him to 8 now and extend later but I agree that it will most likely be a lot higher at that point. It's all a game and depends on the player. Trouba was mentioned but I'm guessing that he wants out of Winnipeg and back to the US hence all the bridge deals. He could possibly be traded next year...

What I meant by the Simmonds example is that the Flyers signed him to a long term deal early, expiring at age 30. Unfortunately now, given that there will likely be one or more teams willing to throw something like 7 x 7 at him, the Flyers may be forced to either match knowing the last few years of that contract will be a bust, or let him walk. By going 3 now and then 8 later even though the total cash outlay would likely be a bit higher, Provy would be under contract until age 33 and, if some team wants to throw a ridiculous term at him at that point, it would be a lot easier to wave goodbye than at age 30.
