We are talking about a big forward, 6 feet 2 inches and 210 pounds.

According to information circulating in the last few hours, Tuch had received a contract offer from the CH at the same time as Lane Hutson, or thereabouts, and he was supposed to give his response today (whether he accepts or declines).

It appears he has made his decision!

Therefore, this is likely to be the 47th contract used by the CH (out of a maximum of 50).

Details will follow.
