True, but being older also means his transition to the NHL should come easier being more mature. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats a first line forward for free! Because all players coming from the KHL has had successful transactions into the NHL. Gusev and Shipachyov were arguably better players, but never had the success they had playing in the KHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon Ward Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Great, now dump Dickinson and convince Jasek to come back. Sign Lamikko, Highmore and Lockwood for 2.7 mil total. Then trade Boeser to Buffalo for Tuch and Florida's 1st (save 2.75 mil). If I am not mistaken, we now have 10.5m + 2.75 + Ferland 3.5 - whatever savings come from dumping Dickinson - 2.7 for 4th liners. That gives us 13m+ to work with sign Andrew Copp and Josh Manson.

Indirect (relying on others) can give "A picture" but not "the picture" as it relates to you. It's why the best bosses are the ones who are willing and able to muck in when the time comes to do that. It's not their JOB to do it, but sometimes it's needed. The connection with "how it is on the ground" goes a LONG ways. Being accessible as "the boss" means if there's a pain point or something it can be addressed quickly rather than bogging the works down. If this is the new way forward, it's the right way forward and I'm more optimistic than I was yesterday. Good points about management style but I've seen it so many times working in the corporate world - that it takes just one lizard to get in and ruin a management group (Weisbrod ?). Anyways, great signing and good chance, he will be a highly motivated individual to perform (1yr deal).

Pearson, Garland likely out. Then maybe one of Miller and Bo. I wonder if this signing now makes Bo and Miller think twice about max dollars.

Podz was 18-20 at that time. He is significantly older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuch was scoring as at 63 pt pace, is from Syracuse NY (close to Buf) and doesn't want to go anywhere, loves Buffalo, they love him. Even one for one, he's probably worth more than Boeser.

Warhippy Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Having seen far more Gusevs than I have Kaprizovs or Panarins I will temper my expectations ala Shirokov as opposed to relegating him to Boesers slot and a confirmed top 6 role 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great pace to his game ... 200' player that can help Matthews on the rush. He'll have instant chemistry with the other higher-skilled guys." Isn't he 5'11, 194?
