[Rumour] Setoguchi could be dealt

Setoguchi, the subject of trade rumors, knows he has to be better.

Asked if he is concerned about Setoguchi's play, General Manager Chuck Fletcher said: "We need to get a lot more out of our second and third lines. We need more scoring chances, [...] It's early yet, but it'll become late quickly here if we don't get going. The next step is to shift the lines a bit, mix the personnel and see if that ignites some players."

His game would be built for the playoffs. Great 2nd liner on any deep team, if not then a very strong 3rd line winger.

I expect the Bruins to go for this guy. They've got the cap room now and he's a prototypical Bruins player - big, physical but also fast and very skilled. Fits right into the Horton-Lucic mould they've been developing well.

He had a couple of good years with SJ and has coasted ever since. Nice shot but doesn't seem to like going to the net enough. I would not move Booth for DS. Booth might not light it up as much as expected but he can dangle and he will go to the net. Look with anticipation to see Booth-Kesler-Kassian in the future.
