According to the Kings' GM Rob Blake, reported by The Athletic's Lisa Dillman, the 26-year-old American winger has been signed to a 'professional tryout contract' (PTO) and will thus take part in the team's training camp, which will open on September 14.
Etem joined the Bianconeri from AHL's Tucson Roadrunners in mid-January this year and suited up in a total of six games for them, without being able to put himself on the scoresheet.
Last Update: 22 August 2018, 06:25 PM | rlu*News worth passing along. Rob Blake told me that Emerson Etem will be in Kings' camp on a PTO. Etem, of course, started his NHL career with the Ducks. Played 115 of his 173 NHL games w/Anaheim.
