I think this is a harmless signing. If he plays well, good for him and Chicago. If he doesn't he plays in the AHL and chicago at least used it's farm team for what it's there for. Testing out prospects and seeing if they are worth the effort.
Not even a top 50 point producer in the SHL. Can't imagine he will be an NHL player.
He played on very poor team, in a tough scoring league. his 14 goals is pretty good for a hardworking 200ft-game forward.
put him with NHL caliber guys and he might be great bottom 6 guy.

Like I said, he wasn't even a top 50 point producer in the SHL. I can't see hit defensive production so I can't really say anything about that.
I just noticed he missed almost half of the season. He's 9th in P/GP in the SHL which isn't actually that bad. I wish I could change my vote.
