Tricky part is, he is also a left wing behind Kreider, Panarin and Laf. Now, they might be able to slide someone to the right, but as far as natural positions, that's the logjam.
Oh, to have that issue if they were all centers. LMAO.
NYR have quite the conundrum. Awesome playoffs, but a third of the forwards that helped will be gone. I see a lot more of SAKIC in DRURY than SLATS. I’d be shocked if he gutted the youth for big name rentals. But…this the NYR. They have,
let’s just say…a….reputation, lol. And an institutional inertia. Sometimes, those are hard things to swim against. If anyone can, it’s probably the current ranger GM. Should be interesting to watch.
Looks like decent little the makeover in PHI. TORTS will absolutely right the ship. And be hated by everybody eventually for it, lol. Regardless, him with TDA will be must see Broadstreet TV.
NYI need to make a move. Now. They have some young tokens. They need to spend them. Now. Or it’s never (well not never, but it’s gonna get real ugly, real soon).
NJD are just…moseying along. Nothing to see here…yet. After the isles, I think they make the biggest move of the locals. How they missed out on DEBRINCAT, I’ll never get. But, they have cap room and they have assets. Something has to give. Out of the playoffs 5 straight, 10 of 11, and not winning a PO round in 12 years is approaching, dare I say, a certain rodent from Orlando territory. They need to do SOMETHING…now…way worse than all the other local teams. The have the talent, they have the assets. Is their GM/ownership up for the job? They better figure it out quick. Unless they are tanking for BEDARD. Nah…that’s CHI’s job, haha.
