Rumor: Frolov To Habs


AK-1

Recommended Posts

IF this were true and IF Frolov did end up playing well with Cammalleri, what would that mean for the Kostitsyn's? would we try to roll 3 scoring lines a la Washington? I'd love that, but don't see how we'd afford it. tho IF frolov played well with Camms, we could resign him for roughly what AK makes, and maybe package the Kostitsyn's for a good defenseman? I love the way the brothers have been playing, but we need to fix our D.

I would rather keep the Kostitsyn Bros. They are just starting to come into their own and we drafted & developed them. I'd like to see if they we'll live up to their potential. Go Habs Go :D

I have tried to ignore the Frolov to Mtl rumors but I have had enough -- no truth. If LA wouldn't give up Frolov for Kovalchuk...

And there you have it. I assume this is legitimate and there probably is zero merit to this rumour. When McKenzie shoots something down, I tend to believe what he's saying.

The rumor reported this morning on several local radio stations was D'Agostini and Hamrlik for Frolov.

Not that it matters, personally I don't buy it anyway.

That would be robbery for us, I think. Alleviating ourselves of Hamrlik's $5.5 million cap hit, acquiring some scoring help to finish the season, making room to resign Plekanec A.S.A.P., and getting rid of the underachieving D'Agostini. It's so good I couldn't possibly believe it. :):lol:

That would be an unbelievable trade for us, even if we had to through someone like Weber in the mix. Makes me think it's highly unlikely, but for the record, I think cap wise it's possible for them to pull it off.

That wouldn't be all that bad actually, Hammer, D'Agostini and Weber. I'd actually do that in a heartbeat. Clear cap space, get rid of D'Agostini. Giving up Weber would suck a bit, but it's a loss I'd be willing to take if it gives us some space to sign Plek.

But as you said, doubtful anything happens.

agreed, but with the contracts we have, our top 6 is kinda logged jammed, so if we could move 2 out, and one in while reducing cap and maybe getting a guy like Purcell back, we'd be in good shape. Not saying Frolov is better than the kostitysn or anything, just saying in terms of team building it would make sense.

Don't the Western Conference teams have until 6 pm EST to make deals?

TSN has it at 3:00 pm Eastern time.

BTW hope you dont mind me using your sig as my avatar for awhile. Goes good with my name. :lol:

That is by far the best signature pic in this place.

Thanks Coach. Its a pic I stumbled upon on the net. Really made my day when I saw it. We gotta teach 'em when they're young! :lol: :lol:

I'm wondering if any potential Frolov deal (if it's real) would be contingent on the Kings acquiring Whitney from the Canes. Apparently they were trying to get a deal done, the sticking point was how long the extension he signs with them will be. (This is from TSN). I guess we'll have to wait a couple weeks to find out anymore now. ;)
