Interesting that he's going to CBJ... Do they think he's far enough along to compete with Kukan and Harrington?

I thought the same thing but then they played Carlsson in the playoffs his rookie season as well and he hasn't been back up since.It doesn't necessarily mean he's ready or they want him to play - playing immediately in the NHL can be a signing perk. If it's between him walking versus being a healthy scratch for a few games and "soaking up the playoff environment", it's worth it in the long term.

Couldn’t the same thing apply if he were assigned to Cleveland?Him coming to the Jackets is purely to burn one year off his ELC. Probably an inducement to get him to sign.
One of Torts many brain farts during that series.I thought the same thing but then they played Carlsson in the playoffs his rookie season as well and he hasn't been back up since.

Jones Murray
Savard Werenski
Nuti Peeke/Gavrikov
Kukan Harrington
What team can say they have that talent at that age? Its loaded.
Hell yes!!!
I'm glad this got done and we won't see a repeat of the Reilly situation. Our D prospect pool is pretty thin. We've got Gavrikov (hopefully), Peeke, and...
Gavrikov hasnt signed yet... look at my post history you wont find anyone on this site who is a bigger Gavrikov fan. I went crazy the day we drafted him haha. But Peeke for sure is ours we have to hope that russian wall wants to win here.Bruh wut.
Gavrikov >>>> Peeke
Peeke hasn’t proven anything yet we don’t even know that he’s an NHLer.
