Canucks announce another addition: Former Flyers top prospect to Vancouver
The Canucks took another exciting roll of the dice as they signed a former top prospect from the Flyers' organization.
The team has been true to its original plans, adding multiple former top prospects in their 20s who could use a fresh start. The team just announced that it had signed Carsten Twarynski, the former Flyers' third-round Draft Selection, to a one-year deal.
ROSTER ADDITION ALERT 🚨
Abbotsford Canucks General Manager, Ryan Johnson, announced today that the club has signed forward Carsen Twarynski to a one-year AHL contract.
Twarynski rapidly grew into the Flyers' system and had every attribute to be an excellent bottom-six forward. With speed, size, and grittiness, he could very well be a late bloomer, much like Dakota Joshua when he first came to the Canucks. An interesting scouting report confirms his potential:
Is a solid role player with the energy to change momentum on the ice. It is good on the forecheck and when delivering hits. Lacks natural goal-scoring acumen. He is not ideally suited to play more than a bottom-six winger role at the highest level.
Carsen Twarynski - Sports ForeCaster We'll see how things work out for him under Manny Malhotra's guidance, but the Canucks just made another valuable addition to their depth chart.
Funny enough, Twarynski's lone NHL goal came against the Canucks. Hopefully, he'll have the opportunity to score more with his new team.
