I think it makes a tonne of sense to pick him if he's there. If i have read info correctly He would be ending his contract at the same time as poltapov. Settling them both in together for easier transition to NA.
It could be likely that Novikov or any other D prospect could be ready for the Sabres so backfill would be helpful for pipeline.
2 years. According to Baker his contract expires after the 24/25 season.

Any question at a presser that includes "do you agree" in it needs thrown out. Why not just ask a question, rather than attempting to make yourself sound smart?
Agreed, Comrie put his up good numbers in a well regimented defensive system. Ours if far more high event than winnipeg's. We need a product of a chaotic defense impo. Someone used to breakdowns and high danger chances against.
He's another one I would not want near our team.
ETA: his conduct throughout the Kyle Beach investigation did not scream "good guy" to me.
