    Crazy Rumor - Tampa Bay / Montreal Trade

    in Habs & Hockey Talk

    Posted

    I think it could make sense ...

    For Tampa, if Vinny wants too he can file for arbitration, get a one year deal and bolt on the Bolts next year for nothing.

    For Montreal it seems less like a good idea, they could just wait on Vinny next year, but after signing Kovalev and Dandenault to 4 year deals, it seems Bob won't have room for Vinny next season. Trading for him seems to be the only option and he could be had right now before he signs with TB and sign long term in MTL.

    Still, I think it would be ruff for MTL to go without a legit 1st goaler, Danis, Huet (who is hurt until january) or Prusek (which has resurface in the rumors) aren't the solution. The Martin Biron thing wouldn't be bad until Carey Price is ready.

    But the important thing is this : Vinny has to menace TB to leave next year, and Theo must ask way too much for Bob.

    Skill: Plays with intensity at all times. Excellent skater with mobility and lateral movement. Has a good scoring touch

    Scouting Report: Every year some unforeseen prospect jumps up out of the woodwork, grabs you by the throat and refuses to let go, like Juraj Mikus. Here at ISS we believe Mikus is one of the more skilled and talented forwards available in the draft, and as a result, he has risen to 32nd in our rankings. His game-breaking speed, balance, net drive, shot selection, and versatility leave all sorts of doors open for him. He could turn into a dynamic first-line scoring forward, or a two-way second-line forward if he works on his defensive-zone coverage. He adapted extremely well to playing in the Slovak Extraleague. He started the season alternating between Skalica’s first and junior team. With the first team he mostly played on third or fourth line. In November, shortly after a coaching change, Mikus took advantage of the increased ice-time to become a regular player.

    NHL Potential: Huge potential and upside – lots to work with for a NHL team. Style compares to: Milan Hejduk.

    Andrei Kostitsyn

    I am new to this site and I was wondering why some (most) of you think that Kostitsyn is a total bust already !!??

    Isn't he like 19 years old or something ? Was he that bad last year in Hamilton ? I haven't followed his development closely, but he seems like a solid pick to me who could be in MTL next year and he has some star potential ...

    Really eager to here your comments !
