I was thinking maybe Imama replacement for Belleville.
I don't think so. Imama is a pure enforcer. He's not a guy that has any chance of ever playing in the NHL short of a cup of coffee here and there because of injuries.
Jenik is similar to Sokolov. He's a tweener who is good enough to be a star on an AHL team, but hasn't been able to translate that offense to the NHL.
I love players like Boko who are good personalities/hard workers and carve out solid pro careers because of it, but he's never going to be a regular NHLer. Players like Jenik and Sokolov at least have a chance to translate to the NHL. Our bottom 6 and more particular fourth line is wide open and we don't have much cap space remaining to work with. I think this is a player who they targeted as a possible bottom 6 NHL forward this year, not someone for Belleville.
