Obviously a depth move for the minors. Surprisingly he is another RD. All our minor pro and junior defensive prospects are RD except for Bennett.
I guess they liked what they saw in camp. I expected one of the forwards like Eisenschmid or Hunt might get a deal after a second look at the rookie camp in the fall.

At first glance I thought they had signed Ryan Johansen. Sigh.

well he may have a shot at some ice time in St,john's ... After Barberio we don't have alot of offensive defensemen.On the right side Ellis, Lernout, Diet, Thrower and Didier play a stay at home type of game or at least what i expect them to play at the AHL level.
Looking like a real young defence... and young offence and goalies..... not looking to be a real competitive year

He left after his junior year in college (one year left), so that is a bit surprising in that both the Habs and he obviously wanted to get the deal done rather than wait and let him finish up his NCAA career.
He is very small by pro standards (5'10", 178lbs), but all the reports out of development camp talk about his great skating and he seems like a smart puck moving defender.
It will be interesting to see how he does in the pros.
Uncle Mike is the bench boss in Pittsburgh after running a WHL powerhouse in Portland for a long stretch as both coach and GM, and his sister Rebecca has two Olympic golds for Canada in her hockey resume.
