Rumor: DW in panic mode; Clowe Available (Murray and Handzus Gone)

I tell you who I want from the B's

Alexander Khokhlachev

http://www.hockeysfuture.com/prospects/alexander_khokhlachev/

Slick puck carrier, creative passer and courageous goal scorer. Khokhlachev has a knack for surveying the ice, disguising his intensions and then distributing the puck to the best option. Without the puck, he’s willing to get to the dirty areas and has an explosive release, making him a dangerous finisher as well. Defensive work is spotty, as a winger he’s prone to losing his man, as a center he struggles to read the coverage. Skating is also a mixed bag, some things he does very well; he has good acceleration, crosses over well, good top-speed, he can stop on a dime, and he’s able to shake defenders by opening up his hips, putting his skates at “3†and “9†o’clock a la Jeff Skinner, but he also lacks elite top-speed, struggles with changes in direction and with skating backwards in general.

After coming over from Russia after the lockout, he put up great numbers for Windsor.

2012-13 Windsor Spitfires OHL 29 22 26 48

He is now up playing for Providence in the AHL.

I love Khokhlachev. I'd take him straight up for Clowe in a heartbeat.

Wilson trading for a Russian player?

Saw something this morning on TSN that the Flyers have been scouting the sharks. The writer (guy from minnisota) speculated that they are interested in getting burns from the sharks and called him a good "reclimation" project. lol

It blows my mind when I read articles like this. Seriously? You (the writer) actually think DW would let go of Burns after everything he gave up to get him? Plus, IF the flyers are actually interested, they would have to give up 1/2 that team for him

Per Pierre LeBrun, Clowe has a full NTC.

Mother of God...

I LOLed when I saw that.

I think it will be hilarious is Shero somehow manages to sign Iginla. I know its highly unlikely but that would definitely light a fire under the other EC teams to sign Clowe.

Bwah ha ha ha ha ha.

Said that two days back. Awesome that it happened.

This is no hack, Clowe is going too.

 

[JoeThorntonsRooster]

Wow, he was correct on all three.

Yup. Garrioch was right about Murray, Clowe, and Handzus being traded/on the verge of being traded.

What a coincidence, so was I! I should be made a reliable source according to HF!

Hey now, don't get cocky Jux!

I don't mean to be. We all called it. Everyone and their mother knew that these three were on the block. Don't give Garrioch any credit.

Garrich is still a chimp. Anyone can read capgeek and determine who could be on the move at the deadline
