Can The Canadiens Get Kuzmenko Back To His Game?
The Vancouver Canucks have reportedly been quite upset with the play of Andrei Kuzmenko. One season after his 39-goal campaign fans, coaches, and management want him out.
In 31 games this season Kuzmenko has just 8 goals and 11 assists. His is projected for a steep drop off to 47 points. If the Montreal Canadiens believe they can unlock Kuzmenko's offense again this could be a good risk worth taking.
For the Vancouver Canucks they would add a depth center in Sean Monahan with playoff experience. They also round out their defensive prospect pool with young defenseman Jonathan Kovacevic.
