News Article: Senators claim Boris Katchouk off waivers

[armani]

How much wood can a Sens team Chuk

..if Brady Tkachuk could Katchouk?

 

[Icelevel]

Well he's also not very good

Belleville or fourth line.

 

[Micklebot]

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

I might have taken a flyer on him, but I can see why we wouldn't go after him with 2 more years at 2.75 when he isn't living up to his contract.

 

[God Says No]

I'm assuming this was done for comedy only.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

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

Up and Wood

Looking forward to seeing him. Not expecting a lot

 

[RAFI BOMB]

 

[aragorn]

Who wouldn't want to see a Tkachuk - Ostapchuk - Katchouk line? BoomchuckachuckaBoom chuckachucksBoom I pretty sure that's a song?

Tkachuk maybe

 

[Cosmix]

Yeah but so do the hawks.

He sucks more!

 

[Cosmix]

Why did the hawks waive him?

A better Q: Why did the Senators pick him up?

 

[Micklebot]

Staios saying he feels he has some offensive upside, he was pretty productive in the OHL and AHL,

 

[dumbdick]

The hawks board has some relatively good comments on katchouk. Hopefully he's a player.

 

[Icelevel]

Idk. I like it for some reason.
Maybe cause it’s something and not nothing on trade deadline day.
But it’s a reason to watch the game tomorrow.

 

[Icelevel]

Long lost cousin

 

[BigRig4]

Arb eligible - any chance we did this to get a second buyout this summer?

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

Arb eligible - any chance we did this to get a second buyout this summer?

We already have a few players who are arb eligible so it wouldn't be necessary.

I think we just needed a warm body with Tarasenko out and Kubalik projected at the time to be out as well.

 

[Xspyrit]

I think it's cool that we replaced our gone Russian Vladimir by another Russian named Boris

 

[Icelevel]

The hawks board has some relatively good comments on katchouk. Hopefully he's a player.

If he’s an upgrade on Kelly it’s a win.
If he’s not then it’s ahl for him.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Well we have fourth line wing open next year.

 

[Micklebot]

Well we have fourth line wing open next year.

We do? I'm assuming Kelly (RFA) will be back, and MacEwen is locked in for another 2 years. Kachouk is an RFA as well,

 

[Burrowsaurus]

I dono if Mcewen is full time.

 

[Micklebot]

I dono if Mcewen is full time.

I think if we had the cap space, he'd have been at least our 13th Fwd all year, but sure, he's probably vulnerable.

 

[Ice-Tray]

Well, we now enter a new age of ownership and management decisions. This is our first Staios pick up, wonder how he’ll do.

Not expecting anything to be honest, but it would be nice if we could start finding serviceable players off waivers for once.

This was a disappointing deadline, but I am expecting some pretty huge moves in the summer as the new regime takes full control of their first off season. I REALLY hope they hit the ground running.

I still have some patience left given the seismic changes that have occurred, and are still to occur, but even I am getting tired of this.

 

[Sun God Nika]

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

"he is not overly physical"

The guy was just waived by the worst team in the league. He is gonna come with flaws.

 

[Cosmix]

We do? I'm assuming Kelly (RFA) will be back, and MacEwen is locked in for another 2 years. Kachouk is an RFA as well,

Kubalik is a goner.
