WHO DAT? 

Mitch Beck, 15 years ago 0 2 min read  

Here is a signing from the never heard of them department and where you have to put some trust that the organization has something in mind. You would have to think this is a signing for Hartford and there’s no indication from the numbers that this could be a player headed to New York. Although after doing some research on Andres, he was being scouted by a variety of teams. He’s only 5’9” and weighs 191 pounds. He’s supposed to be fast and has a good shot. The thought process among the various people that Howlings has spoken with, is that he isn’t coming to the US to play in Hartford. The question is if he’s NY bound, who is on their way out?

Here’s the release:

HBtxUv5S_Pxgen_r_900x561 New York Rangers President and General Manager Glen Sather announced today that the club has agreed to terms with free agent forward Andres Ambühl.

Ambühl, 25, skated in 50 games with HC Davos of the National League A in Switzerland (NLA) this past season, registering 17 goals and 24 assists for 41 points, along with 90 penalty minutes. He established career-highs in games played (50), goals (17), assists (24), points (41), and penalty minutes (90). Ambühl tied for the team lead in scoring and assists, while he finished fourth on the club in goals. In addition, he collected four goals and three assists for seven points in 21 postseason contests, including two goals in the NLA Finals series against the Kloten Flyers to help HC Davos win their fourth NLA championship in the last eight years.

The 5-10, 190-pounder has appeared in 358 career NLA games with HC Davos, recording 64 goals and 108 assists for 172 points, along with 425 penalty minutes. In 2006, he helped HC Davos capture the Spengler Cup, collecting the game-winning goal in the final game vs. Team Canada. Ambühl has also skated in 112 career postseason games, registering 19 goals and 14 assists for 33 points, including a career-high, five goals and eight points in 13 playoff contests during the 2008 playoffs. Internationally, Ambühl has represented Switzerland in several tournaments, including the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino, Italy.
