Quote: | Ty Rattie finished his year with the big club, scoring five goals and nine points in 14 games.
"He's a very cerebral player and he moves the puck well," Chiarelli said of Rattie. "He fit in well. Also with Nugent-Hopkins being up there, too, you have three very cerebral players that recognize the need to move the puck up quickly."
Chiarelli said Rattie needed to work on his defensive game before receiving a call-up to the Oilers and noted he's started discussions with the player for next year.
"He had a pretty good year in Bakersfield," he said. "It was a one-dimensional year. We delayed bringing him up. His defensive game for the longest time in Bakersfield struggled. We wanted to have a look at him because we thought at one point he would get into our lineup and he did."
Chiarelli finished by saying discussions with the forward have begun.
"We'd like to have him back and we've had some discussion so we'll see where that goes."

Interesting to have him fairly critical of his two-way game and then immediately ink him again, but I'm happy to have him back. I think he can play a role whether with the NHL or AHL squad (and frankly, the AHL squad is screwed without him - there's almost no one else in the system capable of producing offence at a reasonable rate down there.)

I think this was a lesson in master negotiation taught to us by a master negotiator. Chiarelli knew he had to sign this guy, because where else could you find a player who could score next to McDavid, so he managed to publicly reduce his player's contract leverage right before he negotiated with him. Brilliant!
Please do not feed the bears. Feeding the bears creates a dependent population unable to survive on their own. Bears.
