For a 2025 4th. I'd happily take Ruzicka. Big body. Can provide some secondary scoring form the bottom six.

Honestly he’s probably worth more than that he was on a 70 point pace as a rookie I’m not even kidding but Darryl put him down to the 4th line and he hasn’t been the same but he could be a good player

there are some holes in his game that make me pause, but for a 4th (or maybe even a 3rd) I'd take a flier on him

BOTTOM SIX did you not see how he performed on the top line with lindholm and toffoil he was on 70 point pace as a rookie I’m not even lying but Darryl put him on the 4th line and he hasn’t been the same since

Yea. Bottom Six. He put him down there because he's a bottom six.

He was playing with lucic and little ice time and he didn’t play for 10 straight games because Darryl scratched him so he was rusty but when he was playing on the top line he was great he created space, okay pace for a big guy okay hands for a big guy and he can throw the body and he has a long reach so he can poke pucks away or have a good chance for a better pass and his pass speed is okay’s his defensive is lacking but he’s like a younger version of lucic

Put it this way. He's not Detroit's top Six either. He'd have to beat out Larkin, Perron, Raymond, Copp, Fabbri, Rasmussen or Kubalik. All those guys are better. Plus Kasper coming over next year.
Ruzicka would be in Detroits bottom six. if Ruzicka is in your top six you are in Big trouble as a franchise. He's about as equal as Oskar Sundqvist was. ie: Good bottom six guy. Sundqvist was just traded for a 4th. So value is on point. I'd still take him for a 4th tho.

I’m saying when he was in our top six he had 70 point pace as a rookie that’s not nothing

Offering CGY a 4th, which gives us an 10.9% chance or a 3rd which offers a 13.7% chance of generating an NHL Player who will play at least 100 Games is of absolutely no = ZERO interest to us. We'll take Soderblom for a 4th though...

Ruzicka's a Stud with some work to do on his game playing under a Coach who Values Experienced Big, Fat, Slow and/or Older Veterans over Young Prospects. The things he's been able to accomplish in the Top-6 in the little time he was given has been excellent and what he was able to do last season beside Lucic & Lewis was absolutely incredible. He just needs to get Stronger, More Aware and More Defensively Responsible and he will be a Great Power Forward. He already has the Shot, Passing, Offensive Instincts and Talent to be an NHL Star

Give Calgary a 1st OR 2nd + Good Prospect (preferable Right Shot) otherwise you're not getting NHL Ready and Top-6 Capable Ruzicka. He's an NHL Player under Team control with a Cap Hit less than next year's minimum, so he's not a player we will move or need to dump unless it's an offer we absolutely can't refuse and the only reason we'd consider it is because we're absolutely stacked with Left Shot Forwards
