Uthred99 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2015 Hi Everyone! I'm from Switzerland and I'm a fan of the Ambrì Piotta Hockey Club. My team recently signed (it's not official yet, but it should be done) Cory Emmerton, who played for the Red Wings and the Grand Rapids Griffin in 2013-2014. I'm looking for some information about what kind of player he is. HC Ambri Piotta plays in the Swiss National League, which level is the same (or slightly better) than the AHL. Emmerton should be the center of our 1st line and I would know if he has the skills to be the playmaker we need for the 1st line but primarly for the PP. Some fans says that he is a solid two-way center, but he hasn't enough abilities to be offensively decisive, they're right? You have seen him for a lot of years, so can you tell me what kind of a player he is and if he's what we need. I thank you in advance for the explanation and sorry if there are some mistakes in the text, English is not my first language and i'm not used to write in English!

Not the fastest, not the slowest, but I imagine he'll be one of the better players in the shl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
