Let’s go!!! One of my favorites to watch this year check out this thread to learn a bit more about him.

Interested to see if him and Gylander actually get games this year in GR or if they’ll just practise with the team.
Happy they both got contracts, specifically Finnie.
His name is fun and therefore he is fun
Woah, 7th round pick getting a contract is pretty rare, should be interesting to watch this guy in GR
Saw he’s still 18, turning 19 this year…. Does this mean he’s still gonna be back in the WHL next season because of the CHL Age 20 rule?
Regardless, exciting to see the progress of a 7th rounder, earning a contract alone is huge!
I love this time of year where we start signing people ready for their first contract
I don’t know dick about him but he’s got a solid head of hair so I’m a fan of him.
You know you’re living good when one of your 7th rounders earns an ELC. Good stuff.
