Description

Kovar is one of the best KHL players out there and was training with PBruins earlier. According to what I heard, he has high hockey IQ, amazing offensive instincts but lacks skating, which was his biggest weakness. I thought sending Cave down for 3rd line play time instead of 4th line/scratch would be better for him and Kovar could easily help our depth scoring. Kovar can just bounce around the lineup. His skating has improved as I heard and could be ready for the NHL.

Kovar is playing in the Czech Extraliga. Boston wasn't happy with his skating or pace and cut him loose

you heard his skating improved? really? where did you hear this? The 28 year old who has played 11 years of professional hockey just decided one morning, "hey! I'm going to improve my skating!" If someone actually told you that he had improved his skating, cut ties with that person immediately.

Anyway, as noted elsewhere, he isn't even in the organization anymore because he can't skate.

Whats the purpose of bringing in another 4 liner? Seems like we have Acciari, Kuraly, Wagner, Nordstrom and Smith for that role..... that's too many all ready.

Really huh. I heard it from quite a few people that his skating was improved in Pbruin games. I mean he has worked on it for 11 years probably, not just forgetting about it. Skating can be improved. He isn't in the org because there isn't a space for him. I would like him on this team. One of the best centers in the K. What I thought was that he didn't need to skate as well as the two wingers which could help him. I could be wrong but how bad is he?
