You really miss galchenyuk?

Evans is being used as a Center in the AHL
Vedejmo hasnt played Center since he left Europe
he is set to play 2nd Center this year behind Evans if Suzuki and Poehling stay in the NHL .

Evans is basically Gallagher with his style battling infront of the net but leans more towards the Danault shut down Style of Center .
he's best as a Winger because of his strength battling on the boards but his hand eye coordination is his best quality making him a key faceoff player.

i'm good with bringing Galchenyuk back but only if he's ready to tell his dad to stop coming to Practice's as he pissed of Claude his first week in MTL and Chucky got caught in the middle of a pissing match between his father and the coach . Granted Chucky acted like a punk about it leaning heavily on the booze as tensions rose but if Chuckys learned Family doesnt mix with business . (he was dumb enough to fire his agents because they took sides with the Coaches in MTL instead of feeding fire to the flame like Alex dad was )

only way he comes back is if Alex Galchenyuk Sr stays the hell out of MTL business only ever showing up if he's a paying Fan as he's the problem with his sons Career and hopefully he listens to his current Agent Pat Bisson more carefully then he listened to any of his former Agents. (then again on his 3rd team in 3 years , something tells be Alex Sr is still a problem )

i do
just wish his father would get Deported so he can stop dragging down his Son .
we get it he wasnt good enough to get to this level in Russia or North America but he has to stop trying to live his sons life

He was partying a lot too. Beaulieu and him was always clubbing, there a lot of picture ans story about that maybe he as mature a bit but is father have done to much damage

Where is Caulfield? I think there is a chance me makes this years team. I have no doubt he makes next year.

Also, Ylonen will be pushing for a spot next year as well.

UFA, Mtl is getting him back for free and keeps Domi. Isn't that great ?

Personally i don’t want him back. I rather keep the money or try to sign josi even if it cost
10 millions a season. Galchenyuk habe great hand and a great shot but ( ya le cordon du coeur qui trempe dans la marde)

if you hired Kovalev from Kunlan Red Star in the KHL where he currently coaches then there's a hope at rebuilding Chucky whether his dads there our not as Kovalev is King in my books when it comes to Power Play Prowess . The fact that he's a highly regarded Russian player who played his first 3 season in Russia with Alexander Galchenyuk Senior before becoming the First Russian to be drafted in the First round and not to long after the First Russian to have his name engraved on the cup . Bring in Kovalev and watch Chuckys Dad get put in his place .


outside that its a hard sell at that cap
if you told me 4m with 100% of his contract paid in Signing Bonus's as Guaranteed money play or no play then sure as that Hagelin money.
paying a 3rd line PP specialist is fine with me and guaranteeing it all as incentive for him to sign should work as long as the term is only 3-4 years all sides should be happy .
(6m on a 2 years deal is the only way i'd give him that much as any term longer is saying goodbye to Gallagher as re-signing him wouldnt be possible without giving up a Danault or Drouin .)
