Not that kind of situation. Quinn isn't available and Greig doesn't seem like the kind of player Buffalo needs, which would be either bona-fide 2C or top 4 RD.
understandable. IMHO Greig plays a lot better as a centre and has potential to be a 2C. I just thought with Quinn struggling and Sabres having a ton of high skilled wingers, a trade could work out is all.

He's a middle six winger that can play with talent with a career high in points more than double what Greig has proven he can put up? I don't like Kurashev much but a 54 point season from a 24 year old isn't nothing.

oh ok yeah... POINTS.

Problem is he produced ONE season playing with Connor Bedard. The rest of his career he paced for a whooping 10 goals and 26 points per 82 games... that is not very impressive for an offensive forward who is soft and who is absolutely horrible defensively. The thing is he didn't even produce while getting pretty decent ice-time and linemates.

In the meantime, the 3 years younger Ridly Greig who just turned 22 y/o has produced 13 goals and 30 pts per 82 games with less ice-time and PP opportunities. But offense isn't the best part of Greig's game, he is already an excellent 200 defensive forward and very good on the PK.

Look, Dorion already made us go through the Kubalik experiment, a much better player than Kurashev. Seriously, I don't think you'd find ONE Sens fan who would be remotely interested in that.

He's not horrible defensively he just plays for a horrible team with no offense to speak of. Kurashev on a good team has much better analytics. He's a Swiss army knife pardon the pun. He's kinda ok at everything. Fourth line center? You could do better. You could do worse. First line third wheel? You could definitely do better but we're rolling Joey Anderson in that role because our coach is an idiot so you could certainly do worse.



I don't care for Kurashev and I wouldn't pay him what a 57 point forward should expect but he's pretty good at everything. Kubalik is all shot. Horrible comp.

Also, points matter? He's proven he can produce with talent. It's not the only thing that matters but it does in fact matter. The Blsckhawks have one real center on the roster. If Grieg produces fifteen and fifteen from the middle six that's a boon for our sorry ass team.
