Would you trade for Kostitsyn? (at a low risk price)

It only speculation, but that player bring offense for sure and is a top 6 player

Kovy Lokti Sergei
Elias Zajac Henrique
Poni Carter Zubrus

Those line could move but i think it would add a lot to our dept

[CarpathianForest]

Yes! Fvck it

[caron14]

Right now SK 74 is saying Aille Bernard, jveux me faire échanger! comment on dit sa échanger en anglais Weber?... TRADE ME RIGHT fvckING NOW TO JERSEY! - (inspired by denis lemieux from Slap shot movie)

Attitude problems. Unless its not true(example: Kovy)Lou is not going to move for that type of player IMO.

Ok boys... I cant post the link but go find the Preds / Oilers game from Sunday... Go check the highlights and look at Petrell's goal in the 3rd...

Like really, go check. If anyone still want him after that... I dont know what to tell you lol

I think it's Andrei that's a bit more troublesome, but I could be wrong.

Look at 0:30... This is most lazy play ive ever seen in my entire life LOL look at the coaches flipping out as he simply give up and goes to the bench lol

[caron14]

yes he was lazy on that play we all know it... But everybody could be lazy on some day... he still a guy who put up around 50 poitns

[hystyk28]

We have no offensive assets to trade as Poille said he is looking for "someone to put the puck in the net." He can take LL off speed dial.

 

BUT, I would take him, can't teach scoring.

[Sik02gt]

Hmm... I dont know, id probably stay away from that.

[Zubie#8]

SK has been solid in all zones this year, Trotz even acknowledged this. I honestly think that was more of a brain fart than being lazy.

We do have a guy that can put the puck in the net: Johan Hedberg

We need offense. We're not going to get a big time scorer with no issues with the assets we have, so I'd take a chance. Kovy seems to have a good effect on the Eastern European guys, so maybe he'll whip his butt into shape.

[Onddeck]

i like him but he doesn't add THAT much offense.  he had that one 50 goal season and he's been sporadic before and after that. 

 

again, i like him, but realize the liability he actually could be

[nessus]

I'd take a chance on him. He has impressed me on most occasions that I've seen him play. He may be underachieving now, but he isn't a lost cause. Plus, it's becoming more and more apparent that the Devils are in serious need of talented forwards. Finding a way to get SK over here would be great, in my opinion.

 

The question remains: what assets do we have in New Jersey that would make for a realistic trade?

haha nice job not calling them "Russian guys"

[Joonas #6]

Is he really having issues in Nashville or are we talking about that one bad (really bad) line change?

 

But to answer your question, yes I would take him.

[Devils Pride 26]

If Lemaire was coaching, yes. 

[DJ Eco]

In theory, we might want to expect that he'd undergo the transformation Kovalchuk has in the past few years, becoming a team-first powerhouse of a player. But, I think Kostitsyn's issues are a little deeper than that, especially after seeing that horrible play he made the other day.

 

Nashville is not the Atlanta Thrashers, they are a very similar organization as us. If Kostitsyn is having issues at a team like Nashville, I think he might not fit in over here

But we have Kovy, who is such a good leader. If he takes Kostitsyn under his wing, it could be a lot easier for him to get better.

[Triumph]

Kovalchuk has made way worse plays than that.

 

That said, Kostitsyn just doesn't shoot the puck enough.  I guess he'd be a good fit with Clarkson, but if there's a guy who thinks pass first too often, it's him.
