You have no idea how happy I am as a Rathbone Owner/Believer. I don't think he's an Adam Fox, but I think he can be a top4 defenseman with PP and PK duties IMO.
I didn't watch very much NCAA this past year, and when I did it was never Ivy League, but Cam Robinson has been pumping left-shot defenseman Jack Rathbone's tires quite a bit this year (Why Jack Rathbone is a prospect Canucks fans should be excited about) and today he signed his ELC with the Canucks. Watching highlights he's a great skater with a wicked shot and vision to nail some quite nice stretch-passes. Cam and a few others have speculated that he's closer than not to being ready for the NHL so with the flat-cap and Vancouver less-than-stellar recent signings Rathbone's cheap contract could help him win a spot on the Nucks bottom pair in the near future. Worth keeping an eye on.

Thomas Drance@ThomasDrance3 year deal for Rathbone. He will arrive in Vancouver soon but not go to Edmonton.

Jack Rathbone’s three-year deal will burn the 2019-20 season. So it runs through the 2021-22 season.Hearing it will include $850k in Schedule A bonuses, no Schedule Bs.Big signing for the #Canucks.
Rathbone will have a real shot at cracking their lineup next year.

I’m very pleased to have been wrong about this.
Rathbone is the club’s top defensive prospect and has a very real top-4 upside.
This is a massive signing for a club lite on defense prospects
