H_T_L Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 Well we gave up virtually zip with Racine and a 6th going the other way so i guess it's an OK depth move. I don't know anything at all about the kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regis22 Posted January 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 I know nothing of him either , at 5 11 sounds kinda small, so I'm going to guess that Markov 's issues are long term Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_T_L Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 He's an RFA after this season. Does that mean he needs to be protected? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it works out, great. If not,,,no loss i suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habberwacky Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 Perhaps ensuring we have replaced a body on the back end that we may be losing to Las Vegas. I think we may see quite a few of these smaller trades as teams try to sure up areas of weakness that may be impacted by the draft. We continue to improve the competition to make this team which should in the long run also make us better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maas_art Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 im really surprised we got Nesterov for such a low return. I mean chances are he'll never be more than a 3rd pairing guy (I remember that early on he was projecting as a 2nd pairing) but even still we gave up virtually nothing. There's rumblings he'll go back to europe/russia next year but again, whats the risk? Too bad he's a right handed shot. We really need some lefties, although my understanding is that he does play his off-side pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuckPundit Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 Good deal. I bet he is better than Barberio. I expect Tampa to blow up their roster after this season to free up cap space and rebuild. If Tyler Johnson and/or Alex Killorn is available, MB better wise up to grab either or both of them.
