Great get by the Canucks. Turns them into a playoff team depending on how the rest of their off season goes.

Hmm. I wonder where he will fit in their lineup??? Does this mean Hoglander is gone.

Not necessarily, both are very different players

Fair, but if you roll with Miller, Petterson, Boeser, Podkolzin, Horvat, Garland, Kuzmenko, Dickenson, Hoglander, Lammiko, Dowling, Highmore. There isn't much space to add anything.

what makes him so different from Gusev or Shipachyov?

Dickinson and Pearson might get moved, so there should be a spot for Hoglander unless he spends some time in the minors

He either can adapt or he wont

My advice dont get to excited or to down on him

Its a wait and see game

Either way its 925k so not a bank breaker

Dowling? he barely played for the Canucks -22 games total. Kuzmenko costs them nothing- zero risk. why anyone would downvote his signing is beyond me.

Never said it was a bad signing just don't know where'd he'd fit in with the Canucks that's all. It's actually probably going to be the best move of the Canucks offseason depending on how Kuzmenko pans out cause he is an RFA after this season as well.

At even strength, that's a pretty safe bet

You had him playing with hockey's second best player named Connor.

that was when I have like just heard about him but since then I did some watched chips and scouting videos of him and stuff so I am know more about him then I did then. If he does become a top 6 guy good for the Canucks and for the league but I just don't see that happening

The sweepstakes are over. I had my money on him going to Edmonton, so this is a pleasant surprise.
