We got a very good taste of what to expect the other night in Calgary. Smallish forwards and defence that plays to their abilities but get steamrolled when they face a Sutter type system. 3 games in 4 nights with travel and a lack of team speed was very evident.
Hogs needs a little seasoning so I don't want to give up on him. Same with Garland as a small guy. Two smalls in the top 9 with speed and no more. The GM surely already knows he needs to beef up the line up with toughness and above average skaters so changes need to be made. Who knows, thanks to JB but Myers, Boeser, Highmore, Wilkinson and getting Sutter hopefully back would be a good start. Rathbone on the up and up plus Hughes are both lefties so possibly Rathbone is the odd man out. Very Risky but a strong asset to be moved for a physical RD.
Will be an interesting off season.
