It's a warm body, I guess.

Now we draft Yamerchuk and the Staios plan will unravel.

All the 'Chucks will align

 

[Relapsing]

Every time I hear his name, it's gonna be hard not to say gesundheit

 

[Senscore]

Not trying to dunk on Staios but any excuse to post this gif is a good one

Tkachuk, Yakemchuk, Kachouk, and Ostapchuk? We need one more 'Chuk on D and a goalie to round out the starting lineup

 

[thinkwild]

Allows us to keep someone down in Belleville for the playoff run maybe. Last chance for this guy perhaps to stick in the league?

Damn I could go for a steak

 

[Xspyrit]

Not bad... We were supposed to give Mathieu Joseph and our 1st to get him last summer

 

[DrEasy]

I'm surprised we haven't claimed even more people to be honest. Lots of holes at both the NHL and AHL level right now (injuries to Chabot, Norris, Lassi, Kleven, Highmore, Jarventie, MacEwen, Daoust, etc.), we should plug some people at the NHL level to help others stay and help in Belleville with their playoff push.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Team culture about to change

 

[Silencio]

Calling it now - Katchouk puts up a bunch of meaningless points in the remaining meaningless games this year, signs a multi year one way deal, completely disappears off the score sheet next season.

Belleville playoff run
Oh…too late?
Anyway,
Tkachuk
Katchouk

 

[dumbdick]

Why did the hawks waive him?

 

[Wondercarrot]

I’m sure this is a Belleville move given there must be zero chance Chicago waves an actual NHL caliber player.

 

[Ouroboros]

Why did the hawks waive him?

He sucks.

 

[dumbdick]

He sucks.

Yeah but so do the hawks.

 

[Laphroaig]

I'm underwhelmed. Andrew Peeke was moved for a career AHLer. I would have like to have gotten him.

Edit. I see The Bruins have also added a third round pick. I still like Peeke but it appears we couldn't have obtained as cheaply as I first thought.

 

[DrEasy]

He sucks.

You'd think we'd pick up players waived by some of the playoff teams, instead we get a player that even a bad team doesn't want.

I'll settle for Nikita Okhotiuk and Hellebuyck. Any of the Jiricek's or Vanecek would work as well.

 

[Tundraman]

First thing I read on Elite Prospects....6.2 206lbs......not bad...then ....

"he is not overly physical"

 

[SensFactor]

Wasn't this guy part of the 2018 WJC team?

 

[Adele Dazeem]

I'm underwhelmed. Andrew Peeke was moved for a career AHLer. I would have like to have gotten him.

Ottawa can do better than Peeke in free agency

 

[AchtzehnBaby]

How much wood can a Sens team Chuk

So you’re saying that’s why he was waived? Here was his statement.
