Coming back around to Glotov, hopefully they can find him a CHL home for this upcoming season. There are definitely skills there, getting him into a role against his peer group and in a North American style would be great for his progression. He's hard to not like as a person, it would be fun to see him succeed here as a player too.
Prospect Info: Vasily Glotov (2016, 190th) – '18-19: Cincinnati #92 (ECHL) AHL SPC
- Thread starter Woodhouse
- Start date
Cape Breton is not bringing him back as an overager, so he needs to find a new place to play. It seems like staying in the CHL would be best in the near-term.
I'd prefer the OHL over the USHL and anything in North America is preferable to overseas.
There has to be some team in need of the kind of game Glotov brings that makes him worth the slot. I wonder how involved the Sabres could be in finding that for him.
I would imagine they would be working the phones a bit after taking a look at teams' current rosters to see if they can find an opening that satisfies both an import and an overager slot.

If he doesn't sign in the CHL what are his options. I don't think the he's ready for the AHL. Could the USHL be an option?

I Really want this kid to succeed. Seems to have a great attitude in life and loves the game of hockey.

Even if he became "just" a solid #5/6 NHLer ... that would be wildly successful. I hope he at least gets to that point in his career.

Christian Ruuttu was a 7th. I'd say he's up there with Goose.

Why the heck did I think he was a Dman
Well you get my point nonetheless. Thanks for pointing that out.

Okay, I thought I was the one going crazy. I do get your point. Being a 4th liner, shoot being at worst a 2nd liner in the AHL, for a 7th Rounder is okay in my books. Anything above that and it's a great steal.

If all else fails, sign him to an EC contract and put him in the ECHL for a full year. Kid can earn some coin, 40k playing against big strong (slow) men.

I prefer this to him going back to Russia. To me it says something he hung in there waiting for an opportunity in North America.
We'll see him in the Prospects Tournament! Even if it's on a Devils YouTube video.

He needed a new North American team to play for if he was going to stay, as the imported played max had been reached for 17-18 on his previous QMJHL team leaving him adrift.
Glad to see he has found a home in the Q for this season. Clearly it was his best option to grow his game in NA. Does anyone know if the Sabres play a role in a placement of this type or is it purely the player and his agent?
Him going back to the Q will be great for his development , just because he will be an overager means nothing . The kid still has a very bright future. He would of had no ice time in the AHL, The QMJHL allows him to get lots of ice time and hopefully score at over a point per game
