He's a centre that could dramatically change our team if his scoring translates. Maybe a Sutter trade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SabreFan1 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Signing players from the KHL has become very en vogue lately in the NHL. It doesn't cost a team a draft pick if they eventually bolt back to Russia after their contract is up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 No, not a Sutter trade. If true, I'd say it's a depth move. Canucks may be rebuilding but you still want depth so rookies earn their spots. Still don't get why everyone thinks Sutter gets traded. He's the guy you want shouldering the hard minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatedkid666 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 The point difference isnt that huge between this guy and the guy Vegas just signed. Plus this guy wasnt on a stacked team for all that I know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckylager Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 5'10, 171lb, point a game in the K. Awesome! Just the plug we need to keep our soft as butter rep intact. I sure as hell hope this is just a crappy reddit rumour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Kovar, I'd worry about his lack of size at centre. *edit* Hockeydb has him listed at the wrong size. He's actualy around 216 lbs., not 171.

It may be a rumour but with something so random and whats happening in the KHL it has a very good chance of being true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd. Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Where would he fit in the line-up? Eliteprospects have him listed as 5'11 216lbs. If true, then I would say he slots right with the Sedins. Some pretty good stats in the KHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BO_Scorvat Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Probably just a depth signing, hopefully there's going to be some skilled guys in Utica next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
