Waived: Komisarek on waivers

[cashman rules*]

You out of your mind??

 

[Oates2Neely]

I'd claim him.

Horton want known for being a 'tough winger' in his Florida days, but he grew a brass set once he put on the Bruins jersey. Claim him, buy out in offseason if things dont go well. If Komi plays well, let Ference walk as a UFA.

IMO most folks will be dissapointed come trade deadline day, too many buyers, not enough sellers, HIGH costs. There will be very few if any available dmen, not good ones anyhow. And any dman who IS decent (top-4), will cost a ton in assets.

Chia can add Soderberg & Komisarek without giving up a single asset.

11 hits, 6 blocks, +2 in 4 games while getting bottom-pairing minutes.

Would you rather stick with Aaron "Milquetoast" Johnson or take a no-risk chance on a 6'4" 240 lb defenseman looking to restart his career?

 

[BergyMeister]

I want the B's to pick him up just for the boards lol factor. It would be glorious.

Johnson, 10 times out of 10.

 

[LetEmPlay]

No ****ing way do I even consider adding that worthless peice of doggie doo-doo to this team. We need more balls....not a neutering.

Ah, come on, just imagine how "tough" he would be hiding behind the refs AND Lucic and Mcquaid!

 

[BigBadBruin8]

I've never been a Komisarek fan, but will be 0% surprised if he's claimed now that McQuaid is out for a bit. May not be the worst move in the world, but then again, it just might be. Have to pass.

 

[Rookie Chargers]

Mahahah lol yes indeed. Lucic ruined this guy!

Or Markov made him.

Edit: He could be of use if he sticks to his game and not yap like he is the Hulk.

 

[Gee Wally]

Don't you do it Chia.

Don't you do it.

This, and if anything can light a fire under Lucics lazy _ _ _, maybe it is his nemesis on the same team.

 

[Beyonder91]

Anybody suggesting we grab him needs to give their head a shake.

Hockey involves actually having to play the puck.

 

[finchster]

Komisarek? Has everyone lost their damn mind? He wouldn't be the first limited skilled 'physical' defenceman who is done by age 30. Remember our good buddy Kyle McLaren?

 

[DanMelanson]

"Markov made him "

Habs Fan Here : We have always said at home that Komi should give Markov 1/2 of his salary . Believe me , you do not want this guy on your team . Lucic did not " ruin him " but helped finish him off. lol

 

[JoeIsAStud]

I do think this is a situation you have to rely heavily on your scouts assuming they have even seen him on this ice this year. If your scouts say he is done then walk away.

I suspect he is just done. And as such you leave him alone.

But there have been guys who have looked done (Rolston), and when they get a chance to play in a games matter environment raise their games a great deal.

I don't want him. But if my choices are Komisarek on Waivers, or Pay a kings ransom (2013 #1plus prsospects), to get another defenseman in there, then I might just make the move on waivers

 

[Andrew83]

Johnson, 10 times out of 10.

Johnson honestly has looked pretty decent so far in the few games he's been in.

 

[MAINE-IAC]

I just about puked my supper back up after reading some of these posts. Komi, are you freak,n kidding me. No way Jose.

 

[Danton Heineken]

Komisarek blocked 207 shots in 66 games in 2008-09. How did Andrei Markov have anything to do with that?

 

[Mr. Make-Believe]

...

I can't believe that there are actual real Bruins fans who dig on the idea of picking up this bum.

Markov's skating, defensive ability, and fast puck moving allowed Komisarek to run around acting tough while a top tier defencemen did the real work. His only job was to be tough and not actually play hockey

pretty much. this guy can't get in the lineup on a team with Dion Phaneuf as their best D-man.

 

[sarge88]

He sucked even when people thought he was good.

Can't pass, shoot, skate, fight, hit or intimidate.

Great at standing in front of the net and letting pucks hit him though.

This is the same place that was singing the praises of Chelios when he retired.

Chelios, one of the 10 biggest dirt bags to ever play in the NHL and some posters here were waxing poetic about his career.

If Komisarek ended up here, I truly don't know what I'd do.

Would it be any worse than Begin playing a season here? I'm not saying I want him or like him but realistically he could be a serviceable bottom pair d-man while Quaider is out and like mentioned by others it wouldn't cost any assets. It's a pretty low risk move if they were to get him and then buy him out after the season, or best case he regains some form of what he once was if paired with a true top 4 d-man and ends up being another steal from the Leafs. If they choose to pass on him it wouldn't really bother me either. I trust Chia and the scouts will know best in this situation.

cool stat, same season, Greg Zanon blocked 237 shots in 82 games

 

[nmbr_24]

I don't understand why anyone would want Komisarek on the Bruins.

Krug is a much better player than Komisarek, he isn't as big, but he is better.

What would the Bruins do with him and his $4.5 million cap hit next year? I think they would have to buy him out after using him for a playoff depth player who was lucky to get in maybe one game.

A big no thanks to Komisarek.
