Player Discussion: Ivan Provorov

[majormajor]

I liked Gabrikov, but at his age I'm not a 7 year bidder. I like Shea Theodore, but it's the age deal again. Chychrun is in my preferred age bracket, but I haven't watched him that closely. His simple stats seems ok, but I have no clue how his advanced stats look.

I don't know about Chychrun's advanced stats. Ottawa fans were not kind about his play. Caps fans like him more. That's all I know.

That and he's been very very injury prone over the years. Gavrikov has been remarkably durable and it doesn't look like he's lost any quickness at all, so take that along with his defensive ability. If I had to pick between that group it would be him.

I really dont want to see DW holding on to Provorov past deadline if there isnt a deal to be made with him. We can probably get that first round pick out of him, so if there isnt a deal agreed before TDL - Don should trade him for the highest bid.

Assett management and long term plan over maybe playoffs this year.

I just want to remind you of groundhog day with Gavrikov and now we are in the same position with Provorov. Then after Gavy left we were in bad shape for 2 seasons.

Just something to think about.
