He reminds me of more developed Svitov.<BR/><BR/>I just think Vermette would be the better fit here... so all things being relatively equal I move on Vermette in Ottawa over Antropov and make a big pitch to get Kubina out of Toronto.<BR/><BR/>-LTLLTLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15817321633985765198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-35261524092037381222009-01-05T16:22:00.000-05:002009-01-05T16:22:00.000-05:00If there was ever a time for Howson to "pull the t...If there was ever a time for Howson to "pull the trigger", this is it.

Antropov and Kubina would be the ideal package from our perspective, and creates some downstream flexibility as we get nearer the deadline.<BR/><BR/>--JAL<BR/><A HREF="http://ashotfromthepoint.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">A Shot From The Point</A><BR/><BR/>Now is the time.
