Confirmed with Link: Isles sign Maxim Tsyplakov to 1 year ELC deal

[SI90]

25 years old. 6’3 190lbs winger who scored 30 goals in the KHL last year. Looking to get an NHL shot. Hopefully we catch lightning in a bottle. Low risk signing.

Nice

What’s his NHL upside?

Wow OK. Montreal was eyeing him hard.

Has a disgusting shot (in a good way). Plays the way we were hoping Wahlstrom would play.
#9 in the video.

What’s his NHL upside?

Im honestly not too familiar with him but it sounds like a lot of teams were after him including the Rangers and Habs.

If we move some of the higher cap guys/players this guys elc cap hit could help us a lot he can make the team

Bottom sixer with scoring touch. Bad news for Clutterbuck, Fasching, Martin, Wahlstrom…

Have to see how his skating looks on the smaller ice with quicker decisions. His shot alone should make him a Wahlstrom replacement, if he has more hockey sense.

KHL is played on NHL sized ice

Doing a little research he’d big, fast, and hits. At worst he’ll be an upgrade in the bottom six and cheap.

He reminds me of Nelson in his scoring highlights. Really calm and a deceiving shot

We signed him, a goalie, who’s the dman we’re interested in overseas again?

Good competition for camp already

Never bad to have pro depth. I have low expectations for these Europe signings but they’re low risk so why not take a shot.

Andrea Glauser is the defenseman. Haven’t heard anything about him since those rumors but he was paired with Josi at the WHC.

NEED him to play in an NHL game in an Isles sweater solely for Butchie to only refer to him as "The Max Individual"

I love these moves even if they don't pan out, it's better to be in on them then not in on them. There's the Kevin Hayes, Andrei Kuzmenko etc and then the Gilroy's, Sekac etc, but it's always better to be in than out.

Kovalchuk played 20 games on the team and is somehow involved in mgmt I think, he talked so much how he respected Lou I bet he had a little insight to isles about him. I also imagine isles promised him a spot in NHL.

Then woof

 

[Osakahaus]

Good news to see someone signed on who molds to be like Cal or Wahlstrom. Could be a huge upside if they get him to play a few NHL games

The Prince of Long Island was on that team too.

Shane Prince was a teammate too.

Looks like a Usable asset for the 4th Line as Long as he hits anything that moves.

Now would you go Barzal-Horvat-Tsyplakov with Kovalchuk near the dot for the one time option on the Powerplay next season?
