Waived: [WSH] F Jakub Vrana waived by the Capitals

[Midnight Judges]

There is probably something behind the scenes we don't know about but I do not like this move for the Caps.

He scored pretty well when you consider the extremely limited TOI they gave him. He can break away and score at any moment. I guess Ethan Frank brings that as well.

Meh.

Meh.

He does this everywhere he goes, no? National team he got benched, Washington moved on from him, then Detroit, then St Louis, now back to Washington. Seems like skill has never been his issue. Wish the best for him but he must be running out of chances, or close to it.

He did for Wings and Blues. Flamed out both times after a hot start. He was never really bad on the Caps though, even this season in limited role he was producing. I think that if the roster was not as deep this year he would get a sweater more often. I really hope he finds a real opportunity somewhere else.

He was never really bad on the ice with the wings, they just wanted nothing to do with him after his drug relapse and going back to assistance program. When he came back they kept him in mi ors and refused to let him on the team despite what he did the previous season for them.

Blues he started hot but flamed out next year., although it was still a short leash

I would like to see him in Vegas playing om a line with Hertl
Hertl is hardworking and always seem so positive
Vrana's contract makes him an easy add.

I would not be mad if the Devils claim him. I've always liked Vrana

He’s scored some timely goals and has converted on 25% of his shots. He’s the only player in the NHL with 3 Game Winning Goals in under 30 Games Played and that’s with less than 10 minutes a game. He’s better than Mangiapane and makes 1/6th of his salary.

I don't think his scoring ability is in doubt. It's all the other parts of his game that are the issue

I'll also add he has won a Stanley Cup. He was good in their run.

Don’t know much about this guy but he sounds like Sprong 2.0

 

[Whaddagoal]

NJD should get in on this

Good analogy. Super high offensive upside, but no defensive skill/will and not good on the boards or puck retrieval.
