theo5789 Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 If we can fit him in cap-wise, I'd take a look at Gusev. He's only got this year left on his contract. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davathor Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 My buddies an Oilers fan, they honestly thought Ennis was the answer to their shallow top 6. Lmao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptKirk888 Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Ennis and Gusef are small. Luff is a big kid, only 23, but he has bad numbers. Wallstreet is right, don't need them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lethunder Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Gusev was excellent in the KHL and had a pretty good first year in Jersey with 44 in 66. He'd be worth a pick up and a fresh team for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herberts Vasiljevs Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I'm going to go out on a limb and say Gusev gets picked up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 We don't have any cap space next year to take on any other players. I don't even know how they are considering negotiating with Pearson unless they have a plan for some buyouts (Holtby and others) or something else up their sleeves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake might have his issues, but Gusev at Height/Weight: 5' 9"/163 lbs and -27 the last 2 seasons ? No thanks, i'll take JV's defensive play, size and speed come playoffs when it counts.

"It's a Trap" Strange he's gone from a guy that used to stand so close to Jovo you'd think he wanted to kiss him, to one of the best insiders in hockey. That said overtaking McKenzie you'd need to have quite the face to do that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No thanks, i'll take JV's defensive play, size and speed come playoffs when it counts. Last years top 2 leading goal scorers were Nikita Kucherov and Brayden Point, both around 5'10-5'11 and 183 lbs. Gusev had 44 points in 66 games last season and had 82 points in 62 games in his final KHL season which he on top added 19 points in 18 playoff games. Not saying Gusev will become either of those players, but he's a lot more potential in doing so than JV and we could use some offensive flair right now. Plus his contract ends this season, so there really isn't much risk in giving him a shot if we have the cap space to do so (which I find to be the biggest hurdle here). With that said, I disagree with moving out JV for Gusev. However, talking about JV's playoff performance when it counts was said last playoffs as well and it was underwhelming to say the least. If Gusev does clear waivers, I'd be curious if they'd swap him with Baertschi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JV wasn't great in the POs last year, but 2 yrs from now when we contend i expect he'll be a solid middle 6 contributor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I would definitely target Gusev in the off season, maybe for cheap because he's struggling this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
