Seth Griffith

Kevin Cheveldayoff made a move to add some scoring down in the AHL for Manitoba, by picking up forward Seth Griffith. Griffith has played games with five different organizations. (NHL or AHL games, also including the Winnipeg Jets/Manitoba Moose) He’s never really stuck and been able to find success with any one team, which is why he’s been bounced around this much.

Griffith is a small centreman, who has proven his ability to put some points on the board down in Manitoba. 15 points in 20 games for the 25 year old. Last season, Griffith managed only a mere 3 points in 21 games in the NHL with the Buffalo Sabres, however lit it up in the AHL. Last year’s season with the Rochester Americans saw the forward put up 41 points in 46 games.

It can’t really hurt to try him out. Our fourth line has done absolutely nothing, opening up this opportunity for someone new to step in. Maybe all we need is a little shakeup. Maybe Griffith could get comfortable on Winnipeg and pot a few points. We won’t know unless this happens, I just think Griffith is worthy of one more shot in the NHL.
