  1. My understanding of the CBA is the Owen’s isn’t allowed to play since we’re post deadline. Could definitely be wrong but regardless, putting stock into an undrafted 24 year old is great in theory but highly unlikely that he impacts the roster in any way. Especially being a skill player. Samanski can find a role here because he kills penalties and plays a defensive role. Tomasek is a perfect example of what I’m talking about. Definitely worth a try but unlikely to blossom into anything of worth.
