Today, the Philadelphia Flyers have signed first round draft pick Sam Morin to an entry level contract.  He really impressed the coaching staff with his preseason debut last night against the Washington Capitals.  He had one assist and notched 23 minutes and 14 seconds of ice time.  His contract is an entry level contract for three years, $4.275 million.
Although he was sent back to his junior club, Rimouski Oceanic of the QMJHL (Quebec Major Junior Hockey League), he still has a bright future ahead of him.  The eleventh overall pick of the 2013 NHL draft, his 6-6, 211 pound frame, already gives his a large physical presence.  I think sending him back to the QMJHL was a smart move since he is only eighteen years old.  Hardly any eighteen year old is mentally prepared to compete at the NHL level.  Another year in juniors will also help him develop his game and mature and grow into his body.
