He played 3rd line last year and did a bad job doing so. I guess he could be a 4th liner/13th forward, but usually you'd want to be paying them close to league minimum.

Probably deserved league min or at least a two-way but I still think this guy can be a solid 4C.

Great option for 4th line center. Really like this signing for the Leafs.

My huntch was right

1st, 2nd and 4th line for scoring, 3rd line for defense.

Still despite not putting up a tonne of points his takeaways vs giveaways is pretty impressive

Brooks with 725k and Semyonov with 825k as 4C... Mikheyev - Kerfoot - Kampf, is that Dubarellis idea of channeling Goodrow - Gourde - Coleman ?

Good defensive player. Struggles offensively. Will be effective on the PK.

Good find. Kampf had 67.4% of defensize zone starts last season (that number is crazy high), yet he was +1.8 in CF% relative to teammates (which shouldn't happen), and allowed 1.9 GA by 60 minutes when on the ice (that is unbelievably low). The stats look good.

Although it doesn't seem he had much leverage on the market, so the AAV does look generous.

move Kerfoot to wing and sign a more defensively minded 3c.

So basically you get a 3rd line thats mainly for defense, drawing penalties, and pissing off the opponents tough guys. They can chip in a goal or two every now and again but its mainly there for the defense and ending a game.

So rn I see

Bunting-Matthews-Marner
Kerfoot-Tavares-Nylander
Mikheyev-New defensive 3c-Kamf
Simmonds-Brooks-Spezza
Semyonov

Dubas was doing so well… then he got drunk and dropped the ball. This signing will hurt the team.

got to go by the charts, cause surprisingly so many chicago fans have been telling me this is actually good. I think Dubas honestly is creating a defense 1st offense 2nd 3rd line. Could be intriguing.

Everyone who said he was a bad signing is eating their words lul

He has been fantastic in the faceoff circle and on the PK. He along with Kase are recreating that chemistry they had back in the day and once Mikheyev is healthy man is that gonna be a fun third line.

And people were saying he is a 4c.
