Article: David Kampf Isn't A Marco Rossi Replacement


Recommended Posts

Rossi's only to be out for a couple weeks.  Even if that, you can't tell me Haight or Jones can't fill in until Rossi and Sturm return.  Roll with what you have, and look to trade for a much higher target.

To be fair to Guerin, I don't think he will sign Kampf just cause he's there.  Roslovic was a FA for months and I doubt the offer was ever serious.  This might be another of those "due diligence" kinda things.

Here is a list of things that David Kampf simply does not do: 

  • Drive offense
  • Score goals
  • Assist on goals
  • Skate on the ice at the same time as his teammates have scoring chances
  • trenin
  • foligno
  • bj
  • pitlick
  • rinse-senko
  • sturmnugget (inj)

 We have enough of these types in lineup already

I'm a little confused over what this David Kampf thing is all about. Is he just an available UFA? You could sign him to a 2-way deal for depth, I suppose and have him split time in Iowa and St. Paul.

I have to agree with Luke, though, he is not what this team needs. Could he be signed as insurance in case Sturm has a setback? Is he better than Jones? It doesn't appear as though he has many knocks on his door. He's got a little size and can play on the 4th line. On a league minimum, extra salary in the minors deal, this could be done. 

It's probably not what he wants to take, but getting something instead of nothing isn't the worst thing in the world.

Why does this organization seem allergic to finding RHS forwards?

Good article. I believe Kampf is available because he refused to go down to Ahl . I think on leafs talk they said he gave up 3 mill to get out of contract so he could go to another team and play in nhl. Anyways, I agree with article not something the wild should do.  Add another misfit to block kids.

He would not sign a 2 way deal otherwise the whole contract termination would have been pointless . It's all about him qualify for Czech Olympics team .So it's all about him doing enough NHL games to be visible
