Only if he commits to changing beer sponsors. I wouldn't be surprised if it was someone like Dmitry Kulikov, a UFA dman likely to find a cheap deal. Big strong, defensive minded dman who skates well and has been in North America since his junior days and has been noted to be a very good teammate. Not only fulfills JB's requirements but also would likely come at a fairly palatable price. I would also keep an eye on Artem Anisimov (UFA), Vladislav Namestnikov (Detroit) or Ivan Barbashev (RFA) as potential targets as well as all in some way fit the role Benning would like in the bottom six as at center. 3 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kulikov would be interesting, as are the other names. Wouldn't wanna be giving any of em more than two or three years though, ideally two. 5 minutes ago, Dats hockey said: Ovi would probably come here on a min contract cuz we have Hughes and Petey Nah, he's already helped one long-suffering franchise win their first cup. He's simply all heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rizzuto&hatoum Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Namestniikov, so he can join that rare group of father/son Canucks ( so far consisting of Bubla/\Slegr, the Tambellinis and Gagners.). Was their another father/son combo that I missed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedintwinpowersactivate Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Anisimov is an interesting option as a 3rd line centre. He has size and scored at 0.5 ppg last year. But, he was also scratched by Ottawa. And is 33 years old. A good 1 year try out to play with Pods. Maybe he can squeeze out a couple more years in the NHL? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locke Lamora Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 God, can’t wait for this kid to show up. His hustle and work ethic is going to significantly change how this team plays and how they are perceived. If he can improve his shot (watch Petey kid) and add a gear to his skating (talk to Bo kid) then we’ll really have something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DLC- Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Release the Podz After seeing a glimpse of him, I'm so incredibly excited to see him eventually slide into the line up. I hope people understand there likely will be a period of adjustment and don't demand an immediate huge impact. If Hoglander is any indicator, though, maybe that's not an unreasonable expectation? We want those kinds of players...fearless, confident...just seem to love the game. Not intimidated at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RakuRaku Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 I don't think Anisimov got much left as a dependable 3C chipping in 30+ pts... I'd just sign Kulikov who's a very steady D-man and speaks very good English to help Podz out! I know Gusev is a FA and could help out offense on Podz line too though he's a bit small and tends to be more on the minus side... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Googlie Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Linden Vey speaks passable Russian - and he and Podz were put on the same line for the playoffs. He played quite a big part in Podz' success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be one of the things I would want to know when considering drafting from Russia. Not a dealbreaker but it certainly shows some commitment that the player is serious about coming to the NHL. I wonder if anyone knows if Svechkov speaks any English or has taken any lessons.
