Great pickup for that cheap, honestly. Cogs can still play.

 

[Shinjuku Calling]

Does he still have the speed?

PK ability, fast skater, 40% on faceoffs, not much even strength offense, 4th liner. Sounds exactly like Darren Helm. Someone tell me how he's different.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

I dont hate it. Basically get him for free and his underlying numbers still suggest he is strong defensively and on the PK.


More depth. Never a bad thing.

He's better at center today. Gonna be the fastest 4th line in the league!!!

I dont think he's different, just another depth 4th line option.


Very important in the playoffs.

What are the lines now?

Landeskog-Mackinnon-Rantanen
Nichushkin-Kadri-Burakovsky
Sturm-Newhook-Lehkonen
Cogliano-Compher-Helm
NAK, MacDermid

Wow!

 

[ASmileyFace]

Meh in every regard

 

[JudoKoala]

Love picking up the scraps of washed-up vets. Fantastic, it's almost as if I can smell the second-round exit from here.

 

[The Pwnerer]

What year is it?

 

[Alex Jones]

Experienced playoff depth. Don't hate it, probably better than Nak

Landeskog-Mackinnon-Rantanen
Nichushkin-Kadri-Burakovsky
Sturm-Newhook-Lehkonen
Cogliano-Compher-Helm
NAK, MacDermid

Wow!

Don't forget Logan O'Connor

 

[Ararana]

If our PK didn't suck ass this never would have happened.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Still very fast.

Has actually continued to improve on the PK year by year and will do a good job there.

Great teammate and hungry to win before he hangs them up.

 

[jfc64]

That is reassuring.

 

[Perratrooper]

Motte went for a 4th, gotta think that woulda been a solid pickup for us.

 

[Avs44]

Meh. Fine depth addition. Would have preferred the 4th for Motte instead that the Rangers pulled off.

 

[Metallo]

Key cog in our playoff run.

 

[McMetal]

For a 5th this is fine. I'm not a huge fan of Cogs these days but it's more depth for the playoffs and gives Bednar lots of options to scratch guys who aren't playing great.

 

[Shane Diesel]

Useless player for a useless pick.

Whatever. Zero expectations.

One bad NAK penalty and he probably won't see the ice again.

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

Seems like the Avs are just covering for potential injuries with this move.

Not that I hate Cogliano, or anything, but does he beat out the current 4th line wings?

 

[Vaslof]

Always good to have more options so you can bench someone who isn't doing great.
