Description

I saw this on another forum and thought I'd share in order to gauge how Kotkaniemi is viewed around the league. Personally I'm a big Kotkaniemi fan and defended Montreal taking him so early in the draft - he's started off slowly this year but I think he'll pick up his game again soon.

The deal was either Kotkaniemi or Suzuki for similar pieces.

For those interested in serious discussion, here is some information on Samorukov:

Sam Cosentino actually ranks him above Suzuki in the second link.

Enjoy!

This is just the start of a proposal. You need to add a lot more to get Montreal to even think about moving him.

They are backed up down the middle and using him as a winger is not ideal but maybe adding only a second might get them to make the move
