I love that in this article of why Calgary should be serious about bringing in Kravtsov, it drops this little tidbit from the start of the season until now.
Quote:
The team seems to have two lines figured out through seven games, being the Lindholm and Backlund lines. Dube and Andrew Mangiapane have currently been playing with Brett Ritchie on the right wing, which Mangiapane’s hot start has somewhat masked. The line in 32 minutes of ice-time at five on five has a Corsi for percentage (CF%) of 40 percent and a 31.68 percentage expected goals for percentage (xGF%). In 23 minutes that Mangiapane and Dube have played away from Ritchie, they have a 55.32 CF% and a 67.62 xGF%.

He does offer up the two top prospects in the system going back the other way, in Zary or Coronato, and I don't think that's realistic. I think that Kravtsov is worth a 3 through 5 skating prospect on this team. He does state in the comments that any of the top three Calgary prospects going the other way would be a lateral move, and is not sure if it's in Calgary's interest.
Can Tre sell the Rangers on Petterson or Ruszicka? (maybe plus a 2nd)
