Dude sounds like he’s ready to jump into a starting role. Imagine our D when Hunter Brzustewicz, Poirier, & Artyom Grushnikov are ready to be called up.

Sounds like a good call on Conny’s part!
In Conny we trust!

That’s a pretty positive review.

Great insight by him as usual. When I read the return, I was encouraged. We received an NHLer, a first that will probably be later, and probably a second for a guy that wanted out. The next 3 years, we have a decent amount of picks in the first 3 rounds. Not all of them are going to hit…but you miss 100% of the picks you don’t pick. -Brett Gretzky

Wonder if he paired with Pachal in the minors at one point

I have faith in Conroy. Let’s see how this all plays out.

I see acquiring Miromanov as being similar to acquiring Pachal and Hanley on waivers. Dallas and Vegas already had very good, very deep defensive groups before acquiring Hanifin or Tanev. The player who is #7 on these teams may be the fourth or fifth best defense man on a lot of other teams. With how depleted the Flames are from trades, they certainly are better options than the bottom half of our defense core.
These teams are in a similar position to what the Flames were in recent years. Just because Valimaki and Kulak couldn’t crack our lineup doesn’t mean they aren’t legitimate NHL players.

Here’s Daniil’s stats in the AHL/KHL with NHLe, and NHL with point% projected over a full season. Obviously NHLe is a flawed “stat”, obviously in this case he’s not going to be getting the same deployment in the NHL as he did in the AHL, but still worthwhile to look at.
2020-2021
KHL: 29p in 52 – NHLe: 37p in 82 NHL games
2021-22:
Starts in NHL 11games, only one point
Goes to AHL
AHL: 40p in 53 – NHLe: 30p in 82 NHL games
2022-23:
NHL 14 games, 6 pts – 35pt pace over 82 NHL games
Sent down after Knights D recovered injury
AHL: 22p in 31 games – NHLe: 46p in 82 NHL games
2023-24: Only 5 games in the AHL – 6 pts. I guess he’s been warming the bench as the 7th D for Vegas? Kinda sucks he hasn’t got to play much this season.

I hope it works out. Just trusting in the process.

As a tennis fan, it’s nice that we are getting some sport crossover on our team ([Vasek] Pospisil, Daniil [Medvedev])

… Any chance we can get Novak from the Preds?
