njd3b1ink Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) Per TG: @TGfireandice: Devils finally give Joe Whitney his first NHL contract. Two years. Was on AHL contracts previously. Led Albany with 26 goals, 51 points. Idk what everyone else thinks about Whitney but personally I really like him. For the past two years he's always been a noticeable player when I went to the Albany games. Not to mention he has been one of the better forwards there. I like his passing abilities a lot. He could be a solid 3rd/4th liner down the road. Glad he's getting a shot. Edited May 2, 2013 by njd3b1ink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundstrom Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 really only matters as far as the 50 man roster size. I don't think this impacts the big club all that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroGravityFat Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 what a scoring machine. i loved watching him at the albany games. tiny but very effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 If he gets any better he could be an NHL callup. I'm just glad he's staying in the organization, seems to be quite a useful player at the AHL level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLinfante Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 The Boston College/Devils pipeline continues. It's just too bad that NJ hasn't cashed in on any of their top level talent since Brian Gionta. Cam Atkinson (CBJ) and Mike Matheson (FLA) will be terrific NHL players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lateralous Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I hope this isn't Lou's replacement for Elias. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin226 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) He's even smaller than Stephen Gionta! No way he could put up similar numbers in the NHL. Hopefully he gets a call up for his hard work though Edited May 2, 2013 by Colin226 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroGravityFat Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 yea but he can skate through chara's 5 hole and score against boston. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoArmySports Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I'm assuming he has a greater upside when compared to Tedenby right now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreeCups Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 I'm assuming he has a greater upside when compared to Tedenby right now? Who DOESN'T have a greater upside compared to Tedenby these days?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
