I could see Roslovic becoming a pretty solid 2C in CBJ. I think he is being overlooked in this swap.
Kid scored 11+16 last year on 5v5. Not bad, and he is 23yo with good frame.

You do NOT want him anywhere near your #2c spot.I could see Roslovic becoming a pretty solid 2C in CBJ. I think he is being overlooked in this swap.

Did Roslovic ever turn in a shift as disgraceful as PLD's?Will be interesting to see the opinions of those who thought PLD was being disrespectful or immoral in asking for a trade. I'm sure they'll bring that same energy for Roslovic who just held out while demanding a trade.
I mean, in terms of what he’s paid for what you will get, you could make that argument nowHow funny would it be if he was the best player in the deal.

Did he refuse to give any reason why he wanted out?
Ah, so you're part of the "It's all Tortorella's fault" crowd. Good to know.So giving up on a team completely is more noble than continuing to play for your team? Torts got the effort he deserved from PLD after crying to the media that a player didn't enjoy his coaching. You reap what you sow.
Roslovic mostly wanted a trade because he wanted to be played as a top 6 C despite having never performed like one. Not sure why the reason suddenly matters now though.

I'm not too concerned about Roz, because, frankly, this is his hometown. I have my fingers crossed w/r/t Laine; that could either go really well or really poorly. But neither of them tried to actively sabotage the team's work on the ice.
Convenient that you've looked past every article and Tweet and etc. that has made it clear that Tortorella has been the cause of recent departures in exactly NONE of the cases. I recommend informing yourself rather than leaning on prejudice.Yes, I do believe Torts has the lions share of the blame here. That is the logical conclusion when he continually drives away talented players with his personality and and grinding system.
To be clear, it's one thing to ask for a trade, it's another to sign a contract, buy a condo and then proceed to push for a trade by not performing on the ice. That's not acceptable for any player. Lots of players ask for trades. They all have their reasons but don't hurt your teammates. That's the crime in my book. PLD quit on his team, his teammates and the city.Will be interesting to see the opinions of those who thought PLD was being disrespectful or immoral in asking for a trade.

I'm not ready to call Grigs a legit top 6 guy. He's done well but I think they need to revamp the PP and get him consistent time there. He's a bottom 6 guy 5 v 5 with an ability to pitch in. He's not a 40-60 pt player.Could this be the year that Jarmo finally hits on the smaller deals/moves?
MDZ looks like a legitimate top 6 dman
Grigorenko looks like a legit top 6 player
Koivu hasn't played so that's still TBD.
But if Roslovic and the others can actually step up and play up to their roles this could be a really solid team
We shall see. Laine should be a MASSIVE boost to the PP.I'm not ready to call Grigs a legit top 6 guy. He's done well but I think they need to revamp the PP and get him consistent time there. He's a bottom 6 guy 5 v 5 with an ability to pitch in. He's not a 40-60 pt player.
I don't pretend to know much about Roslovic but I do remember watching him get absolutely rolled by the bigger St. Louis Blues in a playoff series a couple of years ago. He's not a 2C in any sense of the word. Maybe being in his hometown will help?Nothing against the guy but he's not being overlooked. Unless he somehow develops some extra skills, he's not a 2C. He's a good third liner and, maybe if there is some injuries, he can slot in as a 2C temporarily. That's not an insult to him either. That's just his role based on his abilities.
Now we need to go get Sean Kuraly and Connor MurphyGreat deal. Hope he finally lives up to his potential. Columbus is a proud city, partly from being shit on all the time. It’s going to be a huge deal to have home grown talent on the team that isn’t just an AHLer shuttling back and forth.

I see him being a 3C here.I don't pretend to know much about Roslovic but I do remember watching him get absolutely rolled by the bigger St. Louis Blues in a playoff series a couple of years ago. He's not a 2C in any sense of the word. Maybe being in his hometown will help?
Yes, its probably just a coincidence that torts is a huge ***hole and that players prefer to play for teams that he isn't coaching.
Video unrelated
Enh. I suppose some casual folks might briefly hold that misconception.Who in Columbus is expecting Roslovic to be a #2C? Certainly no one who watches the actual team.
Thanks for sharing.
They're held to the standards that their actions dictate. If you want to pretend that the details don't matter, that's your problem, not ours.All I was wondering was if people demonizing PLD would hold Roslovic to the same standard. I have received my answer.
