Paperwork still being done but DiDomenico is expected to sign a two-way deal worth around $575,000 this season. #Sens

...so theres that..hopefully not the biggest move they make!

He has to clear waivers first. I wonder if someone claims him.

Played for Boucher with Hoffman back in Drummondville.
Crawford got to see him a lot in the Swiss league last year.

Worth a flier in deep leagues.
Scouting reports read him as a flashy undersized winger.

72 points in 92 games in the NLA these past two seasons, that's not great. 28 points over 82 games using NHLe.

Mark Acrobello has 53 points in 48 games. Roman Cervenka has 50 points in 42 games. Drew Shore has 46 points in 48 games. Dustin Jeffrey has 45 points in 48 games. These guys were AHL/NHL tweeners and this guy is doing worse than them. He didn't crack the top level in Switzerland until he was 26. Denis Malgin played at that level when he was 17.

The most shocking thing I noticed from his EliteProspects page; he's a WJC Gold Medal winner. How the hell this guy cracked Canada's team in 2008?

That's actually pretty good for what they would want, if he was to actually play in the NHL. Solid bottom line option. It seems he has an edge and intensity for the game and his team was just recently promoted so they aren't a good team with lots of players to pad his stats.

The thing with Boucher and his system is he wants players who will be a good fit in it (such as why Mika was traded). They must see something here that indicates he would fit their system well. Boucher has followed him for years now.

I'm very intrigued by this signing just like Tom Pyatt signing from the summer, who has been excellent.

Played for Boucher at the World Junior and Spengler Cup as well.

Depth move, nothing that makes a difference to anything else... moving along.

I'd be interested to see minutes on how he deployed him during those games.\

Anyways, I'm intrigued, not only fantasy wise but Sens real life wise.

Yes, he could be a solid bottom line option. I was just trying to advocate against picking him up in fantasy hockey. Could be very similar to Tom Pyatt, that's true.

[The Iron Sheik]

For sure. Definitely not fantasy worthy.

Do you know what line he is on or who he is playing with?

They ran these lines in practice yesterday but he will be shifted around and probably won't see more than 10 minutes

Dzingel-Smith-DiDomenico
Stalberg-Kelly-Wingels

[Axeman33]

This is how they will start but as Ev says, how they end is anyones guess.

Boucher is going to start Didomenico with Smith at center and Dzingel on lw.
