Guest maffu Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Sergei really needs to play at least 10 games with the Habs this year. After he destroyed the points totals last year with London he needs to play the whole season with the Bulldogs and get called up if he keeps lighting it up. Point finale.

With the right linemates, maybe he will light it up in Hamilton but I guess we will have to wait and see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm Don Lever next season here's one line combination I'd definitely entertain: Sergei Kostisyn; Mathieu Aubin; Matt D'Agostini I think that line would be killer.

I can really see D'Agostini and Kostisyn clicking together but it would be interesting to see if Aubin's the guy for the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think you need someone with size on that line. Kostitsyn and D'Agostini aren't exactly heavy weights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockey_gal89 Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 Isn't Aubin like 6'4" And Kostitsyn's a pretty good hitter According to the team site he's about 6-3, 190 but I think he's fill-out since then (Aubin). As for Kostitsyn and hitting: just ask Steve Downie how hard Sergei can hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest futurestar3 Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 do you know if kostitsyn(andrei) has a two way contract because if he does and hamilton makes the playoffs and montreal doesnt he could go down and play with him and reunite them for next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hab Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 If any of you pay close attention, another one of the habs' prospects is in that Kostitsyn-Downey hit clip. #5 Yannick Weber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergei's played well so far in the preseason. I wouldn't be surprised if he made the team out of camp! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anetéchrist Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Sergei's played well so far in the preseason. I wouldn't be surprised if he made the team out of camp! Whooa there... in the first game against the Penguins, he was nowhere to be found. However, during wednesday's game against the Islanders, he was good. Yes he scored, but he wasn't brilliant. No one was on our side. Except maybe Danis, but this could be argued. Still, I only saw periods two and three so I cannot say for sure about what happened in the first...

I don't think that'll happen... I think he'll play in Hamilton this year and pop up for a few games here and there over the course of the season.

franck5890 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 I just don't think there's room for him. He wouldn't be a bad choice if Higgins has to miss any time though [knock on wood], as apparently he's shown a lot of chemistry with Ryder and Koivu through training camp.

There's 2 ways this can go for Sergei Kostitsyn: 1) Sergei could make the team and be placed on the left side of Koivu and Ryder with a 2nd scoring line of (Andrei) Kostitsyn, Plekanec and Higgins. OR (More likely) 2) Sergei ends up in Hamilton and MTL goes with the following scoring lines: Higgins, Koivu, Ryder A. Kostitsyn, Pleks, Kovalev Thoughts?

Unless something unexpected happens, I really don't see Sergei sticking with the Habs this year. He's simply too young and too raw. He has flashes of great play but mostly just looks like what he is right now: a boy among men. I would like to see him play a solid year in Hamilton so he can become a better all-around player and adjust himself to a level of play that's higher than the OHL but not so high that he's ineffective. Look at what time in Hamilton has done for some of our best young players: Higgins, Plekanec, Andrei Kostitsyn, O'Byrne, Chipchura, Halak. I really think a year in the AHL would do wonders for Sergei's game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 1970 Habs Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 I too think he is bound for Hamilton. It will be nice if he can carry on with some of the offensive skills (he display in the OHL last year) in the AHL. I would live to see him have a good year.

Guest FREDDYBEACH HAB Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 I think he will have a great year in the AHL, from what I've seen so far he's just a little off. Not everyone can make the jump and skip a league. It's certainly no disrespect to play in the AHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Talon Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 There is some buzz right now regarding S. Kostitsyn making the team...or at least sticking around for two more pre-season games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gumper-73 Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 I've said it before: Sergei Kostitsyn will be to Andrei what Valeri Bure was to Pavel. He may make it one day but he won't have the impact of his brother. From watching Sergei for the past two year here in London he went from a clueless skilled youngster to an effective perimeter player who was very valuable on the power-play. This transformation took place over a very short period of time which is a good sign. Unfortunately, none of the Hunter brothers grit and fearlessness was passed on. Playing in traffic is an issue. Sergei also benefited from playing with linemates who matched or exceeded his skill level. Sergei's got a long way to go. Still not a bad pick in the seventh round.
