Does he stand a chance of making the big club next season?

Hated losing this guy for MacDermid. Plays hard, i’m cheering for him

Who and what is a Bardakov? Given he is a hockey player and has a pulse, that makes him the Avs top prospect! lol

Does he stand a chance of making the big club next season?

Yeah, pretty good chance I would say. He plays both C and LW, and plays a very gritty, "in your face" style.

In his KHL time, he's been all over the line chart from being a foil to the skilled players in the top 6 to being a grinder on the 4th line, he also is a strong PKer, so there's a lot of potential roles he could fill.

 

[CostaRica]

He does everything you’d expect from a versatile and hard working forward.
Not great in any aspect of the game but very good, determined in your face forward that coaches love!

The Avs are pretty bummed they don’t have MacDermid right now. They’re missing grit and he definitely brought that.

Not to mention the kid that drew this (I think it was Samuel Girard) must be devastated:
