I hope Newhook actually plays instead of staying on taxi squad. The kid is on fire in the AHL, last thing they wanna do is call him up and not playing him where he just sits and does nothing
 
Depends how they use him. If they're just going to sit him or play him 5 minutes, f*** that. I have a feeling this was done to try and light a fire under kadri's ass though.

If Newhook shows to be ready and can step into the 2nd line C for the Avs next year, I'd say trade Kadri. He's on a good contract for another year and will have good value.
 
I would think Newhook would get a practice or two in before they actually try him, but still, exciting times for Avs fans, he really could be a little bit of rocket fuel for the bottom nine with how hot he's been.

Maybe they'll want him in some film sessions before throwing him out there but practice may not be an option. I don't believe they do many full on practices unless something changed recently. The last time I remember Bednar talking about it I'm pretty sure he said they hadn't practiced in like a month.
