Because that 4th line spot will be taken by Horcoff IMO. Everyone forgets we are about to get him back this week.
Thank god, our PK has been slipping since he was suspended.

Just some comparison to see how bad the value was.
Schultz @ 1.9 million returned a 3rd. Is Maroon worse than Schultz?
Penner @ 1.5 million returned a 4th, and he didn't require retention.

I am watching the San Diego game against Bakersfield (Edmonton's AHL affiliate) and the broadcast crew mentioned Gernat was likely acquired to help translate for Ondrej Kase (who apparently doesn't speak English yet).
Weren`t there some interviews with Kase already?
I assume he struggles but doubt he can`t understand anything, it doesn`t make sense
He plays (or heals ) here for half a year and finally we decide to get him a translator
Besides, they are not even from the same country or language (although most speak both IIRC) So i doubt that info.
Sure it might be easier for them to comunicate because of the history of those countries etc but it can`t be the sole reason.
Right, but when a prospect is thrown into a trade for presumably no other reason than to even out contracts why not pick the guy who can help translate for one of your own prospects? That, in my opinion, helps explain why he was part of the return.
Sure, that i agree on if the prospect is meh, which it unfortunately was
really tall, good skater, good offensive instincts. Relied heavily on his raw tools in junior to post good numbers (also on powerhouse WHL team that won the mem cup). But in AHL he learned the hard way raw tools only get you so far
He puts in (reportedly) no work in the offseason and had serious off season training issues that got management pretty ticked off at him. Hasnt put on any weight since junior and weighs like 180 for a tall guy.
He is ultra soft and lost in his own end. He plays a lazy game, but can show offensive ability
Hell be in Europe in no time
