I really don't see why some of you are so high on Namestnikov. He had one good season in Tampa but otherwise, he is a 35 point player. He's in the perfect situation right now in Ottawa to put up points and he isn't. He is about as bland and as vanilla of a player as you can find. Doesn't put up points, isn't physical, isn't a speed demon. Has no history with any players on this team. He's also a UFA.
He's basically Michal Frolik, and this board rejoiced when he was traded earlier this season.
Posters on here hating on acquiring Simmonds, who has similar production as Namestnikov but is also physical and can fight, which are things that are actually useful in the playoffs.
Namestnikov is a complete waste of assets and time.
