Yeah, pretty sure he won't develop a checker's work ethic at this point. Useless to the Flames.

Why are you so certain a guy who sucks defensively and shows little compete and doesn't put up enough points will get picked up?
I doubt any team picks him up. He brings nothing to the table.

I'd be stunned if anyone picks this guy up. Him and Pavelec will both be in the KHL next year. Buffoon Chevy had all sorts of opportunity to trade him when he came back from the KHL but decided to stickt it out.

I've always like Burmistrov for some strange reason. He's really skilled, but his game is much better suited for the KHL

ARIZ claims Burmistrov
Arizona was 2nd in waiver priority.
Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC
Boucher back to NJ
By claiming back Boucher, NJ can assign him to the AHL without clearing waivers again.

Being Claimed by Arizona is basically like falling through waivers.

Arz GM is collecting people leftovers like collecting left over hockey cards as a kid. Not sure if his strategy going to work.

He is very clearly 'Moneyballing' the Coyotes.
We just havent made it to the montage with the Rocky theme yet.

Or he is trying to aquire guys who have NHL experience at center so he can deal Hanzal and not leave young players who have very little experience in a position that they may not be ready for?

I know that Burmistrov is underperforming, but there's that pedigree that he carries which is valuable to other teams. Classic reclamation project.
And then Boucher, well, New Jersey has always liked him. Not a huge surprise there.

Like I've said, Chayka crunches the numbers on his moves, and the NUMBERS DON'T LIE!

So you are saying Burmistrov should be ground into dog food? In that case I agree, although it may be a little harsh.

Chayka is entertaining if nothing else. He inherited a terrible team that is still terrible, so it's hard to say how good he is.
