The reason every team wants to sign him is that he costs nothing, and will have to sign an ELC.

Not saying he won't be good (Bob McKenzie said he could be a top-6 forward this year) but I've been burnt too many times by these NCAA kids.

NCAA phenom Matt Gilroy

I see Vesey as more of a Billy Sweatt.

Maybe not as good, but still.

Don't worry about MIB.

As you can see from the comments here, about 95% of Leafs fans couldn't care less if he does or does not sign in Toronto

I personally don't give a crap, but would love for him to sign here just to see how the tune changes from Sabres and Bruins fans.

They just better hope his career is as successful as LeBlanc, Connolly, Miele, Geoffrion, Gilroy, Porter, Duncan, Sertich, Lessard, Sejna, Mottau, Krog, Bonin, Holzinger, Marinucci, Pellerin, Emma, Miller, MacDonald, Hrkac, Fusco, Watson, KURVERS, Broten and the other Fusco (who knew there were 2 Fusco's)?

Now there's a great one! The Matt (frank)ing Gilroy sweeps.

Rangers won that one. And the 11 goals he scored in his 225 game career was impressive.

This is the one and only warning to the posters who are trolling

Keep it up and you won't be posting until after vesey signs somewhere.


Go get 'em Dozzer - you are a good man...

You young kids with your Matt Gilroys and Tyler Bozaks.

I remember when Jiri Dopita was the best player outside of the NHL, and turned out to be a complete franking bust.

Vesey won the Hobey Baker because it is a shill of an award politically given to those that have given their time to the NCAA as an association. Jack Eichel is the exception since he was so dominant that he couldn't not win it. The fact that he won it over Kyle Connor is not only a joke, but a Melissa McCarthy joke.

Too good to sign with Chicago.

Too good to sign with Toronto.

Played 3 games over 2 seasons for the Canucks (no goals, no assists, -1).

I hope he had a duffel bag big enough for his ego when he flew over to Europe to play in the Swedish league.
