Kind of surprised to hear that Jimbo was going to over to scout him anyway before making a decision....don't the 'Nucks have a plethora of European scouts reporting out on SHL and KHL games?....wondering if coming off injury, it might actually be easier to sign him rather than have him finish his season with his club team...could make a great addition to the 'Nucks forward corp down the stretch and at least he'd be fresh.
Somehow think he has to clear waivers if he comes mid season. And, I'm not surprised that JB was going over to see him. They would need to sign him to a 1-way contract and keep him on the NHL roster. So, they need to be pretty sure that he can play. Taking up the roster spot, especially, has a domino effect on others in the organization - guys like Shinkaruk.
