André Burakovsky

But whoever identified these two guys as the guys you bring in, I just don't understand it.

And then on top of that, spending the five and a half million against your cap to bring in Andre Burakovsky, who everybody knew was a reclamation project.

He wasn't a sure thing by any means.

Why was that more of that money not allocated? Because between Erson and Burakovsky, that's seven and a half million dollars.

And it's been like a rotating door of guys over the last couple of years.

You get Zetterlin, Greg, Giroux, Burakovsky, like just a number of guys that they're trying to, to fit there.

And, and like, I don't know if this is permanent at all, but he's, he's gotta be pretty happy having a guy like Cousins on his wing.

That's hot.

Um, and Greg, not only like the things that you guys have already described so far, but if you get that line playing against the opposition's best, he's going to piss off their best players.

Yeah.

Well, the fact that there's also, uh, a known time of players being out of the lineup, Warren Fogle, at least two to three weeks, Andre Burakovsky, at least two to three weeks, uh, These two players now just focus in on the next two to three weeks, starting with the next game, right? And I know it's a game-by-game basis, but that's what their focus is.

It looks like I might be able to be here for a couple of weeks.

So there's no kind of status up.

We did get ones on Burakovsky and Fogle on the weekend.

They're both going to be out three to four weeks.

Burakovsky got hurt on the trip.

When did Fogle get hurt now? I'm trying to think.

It was on the Vegas game.

Scored last night too.

And scored last night.

There were some rumors that Ottawa was looking for him, but those squashed down pretty quick.

They've already got Andre Burakovsky's buyer's remorse.

Surprise, surprise.

He sucks.

So...

i don't feel like it's going to be something short term i assume they're probably targeting before christmas that's that would be the perfect scenario uh because yeah he got surgery so it's always it's always something that's going to take some time and you kind of never know what can happen during those kind of uh rehabs so we'll see how it goes uh for him but yeah that's the key pieces that's missing but now with full goal and burakovsky out for three to four weeks those players, even though Burakovsky didn't do much in the beginning of the season, he's still kind of an NHL player at some point and he can fill in.

And if he finds his rhythm, he can maybe be a okay player for them, but it's, it's Warren Fogle that's missing right now.

Uh, even though they got depth in the front, uh, it's those kinds of key guys that, uh, that are missing and they're going to probably see what they can do, but, uh, For now, I feel like Tomasino played two good games.

The only

Burakovsky weren't injured right now.

It's the only thing stopping a deal from getting done.

Even with the stat line

It's not, that was as dominant as they've been.

And I, I, I think the Florida game was the best game they played all season, but this game on the road out West afternoon, missing obviously two players, or I mean, Hayden Hodgson and Andre Burakovsky.

And they're like, You wouldn't have been surprised if they came away with a loss.

They looked dominant right from the start.

Like, those two lines are really, really good today.

For sure.

Phil Tomasino, like he had more scoring chances already than Andre Burakovsky.

And I'm not trying to go, you know, I feel bad for him.
