Imagine this guy and Foudy on the PK together. They'd probably set a record for most 2 on 0 breakaways

 

[klozge]

*he's mostly played center the last couple years in Sweden.

Probably can play center and Wingerli

That, or set the record for smallest PK duo in the modern era

 

[Cake Malar]

Probably can play center and Wingerli

But can he play Defenseli?

 

[Richard88]

But can he play Defenseli?

Rumour has it that he's a pretty fast skaterli

 

[LTC Pain]

PEB's replacement???

 

[SirLoinOfCloth]

Is this Paul Kariya?

 

[Perratrooper]

Hear me out:
LOC-Wingerli-Foudy

They say passing the puck is faster than skating it, not with this line.

 

[Pavels Dog]

I watched Wingerli all season, absolutely love him. Relentless motor, speedy, but also has decent smarts and skill (at least for SHL level). But the work ethic sets him apart.
Hope he works out well in Colorado, I think there’s a good chance.

 

[MarkT]

I like thisli. He sizeli is of course a concerli, but there's a thingli to be saidli about being ableli to keep the puckli close to the bodyli and thusli be hard to containli.

Also, if he's indeedli bad at faceoffsli and not good defensiveli, I think he's destinedli to be a wingerli.

 

[Rumplesnipeskin]

Even as an AHL player, his speed and work ethic, mindset as a professional will be a positive addition and help the other players develop also.

 

[JWK]

I hate this signing because of all the puns

 

[LTC Pain]

Because of all the "punlis" I think you mean

 

[Pokecheque]

Is this Paul Kariya?

If he shoots like Paul Kariya I'm gonna love him in the NHL.

 

[dahrougem2]

He's scoring 50 next year. Book it.

 

[SaltySkywalker]

Next Alex Kerfoot

They can only give out one Selke a year though...

 

[klozge]

They can only give out one Selke a year though...

And the next ones will all be Jost's.

 

[Richard88]

Is this Paul Kariya?

It's Paul Kariyli

IMHO, Avs don't need to get all physical at all. We need to be built like the Chicago Blackhawks and they had countless number of run-ins with "their" Vegas Knights in LA Kings and were able to get by. Sure, Avs should still target players that fix their holes and weaknesses, but this signing seems to build in the direction Avs want to be and that's a fast youthful team and I can't argue against that.
