I really wouldn't be surprised if he had a hand in getting him to talk to Waddell... sounds like Kovy knows something about Antro and Zherdev that that others don't.A2Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16984343995009130077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3345962750124330515.post-2326175156272019222009-09-02T17:42:15.920-04:002009-09-02T17:42:15.920-04:00I'm not sure where Zherdev would fit, but if w...I'm not sure where Zherdev would fit, but if we get him there's no way in hell he'd be playing on the third line. <br /><br />I think it's possible that Slava could be moved to the third line, because 1) he's most productive on the power play anyway, and 2) we could then have the potential for 3 scoring lines. <br /><br />And that, I suppose, leaves Evander Kane in Vancouver for another year. <br /><br />The mind reels.Mortimer Peacockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04624643069613171619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3345962750124330515.post-47234876087646061032009-09-02T17:38:41.737-04:002009-09-02T17:38:41.737-04:00Finally some sanity in print w/r/t the Zherdev rum...Finally some sanity in print w/r/t the Zherdev rumours. We don't need him and the risk to our team chemistry is too great IMHO. Sure it sounds great to put him on the RW of one of the top 2 lines, but we already have Peverley or Whitey trying to cover for Kovy's defensive lapses, an aging Kozlov who is a defensive liability at times but too valuable on the PP to potentially piss-off with 3rd line minutes, a big newcomer in Antro to work into the fold and a developing Little who needs to stay at RW to take advantage of speed and strength along the boards. Zherdev would make more sense if we had an opening in our Top 6, but we've already pushed Colby down to the 3rd line (where he belongs prolly), but then who else? Too risky with precious chemistry hanging in the balance.Speaker of Truthnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3345962750124330515.post-41979332133770862882009-09-02T16:38:59.942-04:002009-09-02T16:38:59.942-04:00Yesum Mr. Frenchy.

If you think we don't have room for a 20 goal scorer with some potential for more, I's thinks thats wrong.<br /><br />The way I see it, you've got Kovy, Slava, Little, Antro, that are locks for the top 6.<br /><br />Throw in White, Pevs, Army, Zherdev, Kane, to compete for the other two spots.<br /><br />I'd do it.Big Shooterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13151606706839891986noreply@blogger.com
