D-Money Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Zykov really flopped in Edmonton. Wouldn't be surprised though if Carolina re-claimed him, so they could send him to the A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB5 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Really low grade waivers today, surprised any of these guys were even with an NHL team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had good numbers in Charlotte last year 33-21-54 in 63 games, is 23 and on his 2nd contract which is a 1-way @ $650 which isn't doing him any favours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense for them to put in a claim so he can go help Charlotte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll also depend if Carolina still believes that there's something more there and is worth bringing back otherwise they may as well cut ties if they are done and let someone else develop in Charlotte.

Lancaster Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I think the Canuck should pick up Zykov. He's only 23, the same age as Horvat, so it isn't to say he has finished developing. While he's Russian, he has spent his most of his junior, and pro career in North America. A right-handed shot and the same size as Virtanen. His numbers has improved every year, so it's safe to say it should continue a bit more. That being said, I've never seen him play before, so I have no idea about his footspeed or whether he's able to use his body effectively. But his draft bio said he's a good skater and with good hands, plus he is a 30 goal scorer in the AHL, not common for someone who was only 21-22 at the time. I wouldn't put much weight on his performance with the Oilers... since outside of a handful of players there, nobody is doing well. He may be useful as the RH shot on the 2nd PP (what Boeser does on the 1st PP), a 3rd line LW that can maybe slot into the top-6 sparingly.

Didn't stand out in any way and was easy to miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't stand out in any way and was easy to miss. I actually missed the game last night. In any case, he only got 6 mins last night, 6 the previous game, and then 4 and 7 mins the games prior. Not sure if he has to do with being in the doghouse or maybe Hitch is riding McDavid and thus ice time needs to come from somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SabreFan1 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Not surprising. When the Ducks lost to the Sabres, Dotchin didn't help by getting roped into an after period argument with Bogosian that saw just him get penalized and ejected leaving Anaheim to play the rest of the game down an extra D-man. Fatman isn't very bright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carolina lost him originally, so if no-one else puts in a claim, they are allowed to get him back and send him to the AHL. He has a one way contract, so he will be an expensive AHLer !
