Speculation: Andrei Kostitsyn wants to come back to NHL.

[Brainiac]

The (temporary) absence of Pacioretty suggests that the Habs should at least look at AKost (or Semin).

Yeah obviously. Let's make sure our goal scoring doesn't take a dip in July and August!

Hes not coming back, he just sign a contract in the KHL.

Lock her up.

RIP AK Thread

 

[Fazkovsky]

haha that's weird because this night I had a dream he had a tryout with the sharks.

That's too bad I would have loved to see a more mature AK46.

 

[Price is Wright]

I wonder if the team that offered him a tryout pulled it when they saw the public campaign he was trying.

I'm sure fans of Torpedo will be happy to have the Kostitsyn brothers.

Damnit, I wanted one for our 2nd RW. Kassian/Bournival/Thomas/Holloway/DSP it is then...

 

[Le Tricolore]

Balls

 

[ROEN]

Andrei, Sergei, Frolov and Semin (dimitri) as well ? I'm keeping tabs on KHL signings lately and it seems like Torpedo wants to take it all this year ...

Thank motherfreaking god

I always liked Andrei, especially compared to his little brother, but that page has been turned a while back now. I don't think trying to revisit the past would have been such a good idea in this case. We have pro prospects ( Hudon, Ghetto,Carr,etc.) that need to have a chance to fight for that last top 6 spot and that can potentially have a much bigger impact in the long run.

We knew it was coming, but still disappointing. At least those that couldn't stand this thread, but kept clicking on it anyways, will be happy.

Nevermind this is just more an indicator that we are going into the season with Kassian and Gally as our two 'best' wingers (because chuck should be at center.) We are in for a bad season.

Yep. Everyone says we need scoring, but they don't want a cheap player who can score 20.

How much did he sign for in Russia?

 

[Fozz]

Did you guys really manage to fill 38 pages on Kostitsyn? Wow!

Haven't seen a quoted number but the second year is an option.

Thank you Jesus. Can we get a time machine and go back and swap him for Getzlaf or ANY Canadian now?

 

[Nynja*]

If only he were a grinder

 

[Price is Wright]

If only he were a grinder

if he were a grinder, one of 30 NHL teams would give him a camp invite?

 

[Dagistitsyn]

Dang. I guess MB is okay with Weise in the top 6 again.
