He was our 7th round pick last draft and had 26 points in 43 games in the Slovak league.
As a 5’8 defenseman it’ll be tough to make the NHL but could be a good player for the Rocket
I feel like this is a move to get our players coming up through laval to get used to playing with this style of defenseman, for reasons
RD are hard to come by.
Tourigny gets the same 1 year prove-it deal that RHP and Simoneau got. Both eventually got an NHL ELC.
He looked alright in the rookie tournament last year. Decision making still needs to adjust to the pro pace.
