Would the Jets take Laich for Burmistrov? Seems to me they would need a center coming back the other way.
I think MOJO's point production in part can be due to who he has had the opportunity to play with. I don't think Burmistrov has been surrounded by skilled players such as Ovie and Backstrom. Like I noted earlier, you could have Burmistrov paired with Kuznetsov on the second line beginning next season and they just might have some chemistry similar to Ovie and Backstrom on the first line.
Let me hit you all (the people who think "that guy has a NAME that I saw on HIGHLIGHTS and because he plays for a DIFFERENT team he must be better than what WE have")...
Burmistrov is almost 22 just like MJ or they are very close in age. He has had seasons of 20, 28 and 10 (shortened year) points.
If you guys think MJ "floats" or is not "strong" they you will REALLY feel 10x moreso about Burmistrov. The guy would make Flash look like Jay Beagle on the boards.
MJ has had seasons of 27, 46, and 22 (shortened year) points.
He has outproduced Burmistrov every year and is faster and more competitive.
Also MJ doesn't pout his way out of situations like Burmistrov is doing.
In what world would a sane Caps fan trade MJ for this bum? Lets not even talk about Laich b/c thats a whole nother world of stupid.
Also here is a team breakdown of GF for us and the Jets:
12-13 146 us 126 them
11-12 218 us 221 them
10-11 219 us 218 them
Fairly even I'd say so its not like Burmistrov is playing for a team devoid of talent.
