I like it. If he pans out can be a big physical 4th line center who can win faceoffs.

 

[Thrasymachus]

Low risk acquisition, I'm all for it.

Can't wait to hear Butch say his name.

My favorite will always be when Butch took a few attempts at pronouncing Cammalleri and settled on Calamari.

What a fantastic pickup by Lou. The old guy has been hitting it out of the ball park lately. This guy should make the team being a faceoff specialist and hits like a freight train. Also a formidable enforcer breaking opponents noses while scoring goals. I like this acquisition a lot- an enforcer who can actually play, skate to hit, and score goals. Future 4th line center for sure. Some list him at 6'5. Some may think it hard to believe but an acquisition such as this can be just as important as a high draft pick.

"On the ice, Veremyev sticks amongst the rest, standing at 6’5” and weighing in at 200 pounds. In a recent game against Omaha, Veremyev scored one goal and broke an opposing player's nose in a fight. “He’s not scared to show the opposing team that its not easy to come into the Ice Box and play the Lincoln Stars,” said coach Rocky Russo. “He is a gritty player and it shows. He's not scared to get a little bloody.” It's not just on the ice where Veremyev shines. He's also a one-of-a-kind teammate. “You like to be around guys like (Veremyev) because he brings a smile to everyone's face but when it's time to practice or play, he is locked in,” teammate Griffin Jurecki said. “He's the type of guy who makes everyone around him better. He's very physical and uses his body very well but he's also very versatile. It's kind of a one-two punch.” There's a lot that makes up Veremyev. Passion, pride, physicality, and all of that is the perfect recipe for a good hockey player. Veremyev has a long journey ahead of him but that end goal is well worth the time and effort. Every time Veremyev takes the ice, he hopes he’s one step closer to playing in an NHL rink."

[periferal]

Very nice. Offseason off to an amazing start.

 

[IslesNorway]

No risk signing. Might be useful in time.

 

[Chapin Landvogt]

I see him ending the season in BPort on an ATO centering Liukas and Piercey.

Book it.

 

[Chardo]

Islanders already lead the league in faceoff percentage. Now we add another guy to get even more possession to do nothing with.

 

[mm11]

Was gonna ask if he can fight. Nice

 

[Glory Days]

Nice signing, is his skating good enough?

I guess the faceoff comments are said jokingly but for the record he’s taken a grand total of 8 faceoffs this season and has won 2 of them.

I’m guessing “knock” your face off specialist

Krivokrasov vs Vermeyev would make Butch short circut.
