Player Discussion Alex Tuch (acquired via trade from VGK)

[jamienwalker]

thanks for correcting me, i added little brother because ROR is the only reason Cal (i actually forgot his name) played in the league imo. I totally forgot about McGinn. I liked him.

Yeah, they wound up having to deal Cal from the Amerks too. That whole thing was toxic. So glad they have someone like Tuch now who is not only eager to be in Buffalo but producing at the level he is on the contract value he has.

We really did do a stellar job recycling the previous top picks.

Grigs > RoR > Thompson


Risto > Rosen
Reinhart > Levi, Kulich
Eichel > Tuch, Krebs, Ostlund

Not to get too OT from Tuch but the 2nd from Philly in the Risto trade is a pretty high 2nd too, lots that can potentially be done with it

Really want Paul Gaustad to come out of retirement, so we can have a Tuch-Tuch-Goose line at the world championships.

I'd really like to see him turn into a 200ft monster, mostly because I think he's capable of becoming a Jordan Staal-like backchecker.

Ok.

Still no regrets on our haul with Tuch, Krebs, Ostlund and whoever we take in up coming second round.

Great. I see zero out there hey he has any plans to sign with Montreal? Are Habs fans worried?

Not from what I've seen. I think he's been passed over on their prospect depth by a number of other players so most probably just don't see him as amounting to much.

Also, Capfriendly is littered with ACGM threads sending him to Buffalo as a throw in.

I wouldn't mind if he stays in school for a year and then they sign him as a defected UFA next summer. He's not the player his brother is - few are - but he would be a guy with applied size for the Amerks. They don't have that in their prospect mix.

Habs fans are about as worried we'd poach Tuch as Sabres fans were worried that Montreal would poach Levi.

I’ve decided I don’t like having family around. 1 goes crazy over ice time, the other defends his brother. If he’s not noteworthy except that his brother is everyone’s favorite sabre, I’m more comfortable letting the family take different career paths.

Same for Tyce Thompson.

Looks like hockey wasn‘t the only meaningful games he played late in the season
