Yes he did have to go thru waivers this season and cleared. But that was also because he was on a 2 yr deal, which next season it will be a 1-way deal. Teams are more wary to claim someone who are on more than a 1 yr deal which would explain a bit why Robak cleared waivers this yr.If im not mistaking, Robak had to go through waivers this season too and he cleared. Unless he's improving a lot over the summer, I see him going to SA next season anyways. Perhaps if jovo goes, he can serve as a 7th. Id be fine with that
I really hope Robak can at least stick as a steady defender on the bottom pairing.

If our goal is to make the playoffs next season, then I'll go with neither.
I think it would be Robak for reasons other than talent like Coolburn stated. Let's be honest here. Either of these guys should easily be able to beat out Jovo for a job.

Nah, if that were true we'd have signed Karpovtsev again.
Anyway, I don't think either will get the steady job - Robak may be done at this point, but the Panthers will probably not mind him being claimed off waivers if it happens. Petrovic will still be a callup, but I think Tallon has something under his sleeve to address defense in the offseason and that will probably take up any remaining roster spots.
Oh, plus we're likely to draft an NHL-ready defenseman next month anyway.

Show some ****ing respect guys. Your dead grammas were ******. How the **** about that? I dont give a **** how bad someones stint here was. Dammit, nerve struck. If Jovo dies, retrospective **** talk would also be unacceptable.
Anyway, Coolburn quickly ended the debate in his first post.
