I don't think they'll be successful (thus Burrows + Brouwer in the same lineup), but I also don't think Hansen would be moved in that scenario. I also don't really see Brouwer being the success fans are looking for on the top line. I think that just underscores how painfully weak our current RW depth is. I can't think of a single RW in the organization besides Hansen I'd be comfortable with on the top line next season (unless Rodin breaks out in a big way), so you can see why Benning and Linden are ready to throw crazy money at a RW (and aren't willing to trade Hansen). I think it at minimum we sign a utility player that could ultimately push Burrows out, and will most definitely attempt to sign any of the top RWs available. I don't see Brouwer being the secondary player they sign IF they hit on a top free agent, because then the lineup would look something like: Sedin-Sedin-Eriksson Baertschi-Sutter-Brouwer Etem-Horvat-Rodin/Hansen Dorsett-Granlund-Rodin/Hansen and neither of those guys should be a RW on the 4th line. Hansen could be moved in this scenario, but with Benning's general unwillingness to lose him, it probably shakes out more like: Sedin-Sedin-Eriksson Baertschi-Sutter-Hansen/Rodin Etem/FA Left Winger-Horvat-Rodin/Hansen FA Left Winger/Etem-Granlund-Dorsett tldr: We have no top line RW besides Hansen, should sign a top FA RW and a utility LW to play 3rd/4th lines.

DownUndaCanuck Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 All depends on UFA signings. Stamkos is pretty unlikely to be honest considering at the most we have 11M in cap space. Erikson seems to be most realistic, he's 30 and hopefully we don't give him any more than 3 years 5M per, he's a declining 30 goal scorer. I'd love to try and sign a defenceman as well to really help us out with injuries, like Demers at 5 years 6M per. Big bucks for a solid stay at home guy. Another option is Eriksson + depth forward like Brouwer/Helm for around 2-3M, then a 6th defenceman like Irwin for about 3-4M. Option A) Sedin - Sedin - Eriksson Baertschi - Horvat - Hansen Etem - Sutter - Virtanen Gaunce - Granlund - Burrows Dorsett Rodin Edler - Tanev Hutton - Gudbranson Sbisa - Demers Tryamkin Subban Option B ) Sedin - Sedin - Eriksson Baertschi - Horvat - Hansen Etem - Sutter - Helm Burrows - Granlund - Virtanen Edler - Tanev Hutton - Gudbranson Sbisa - Irwin Essentially defensive quality and depth over forward quantity and less depth on defence. I'd prefer option A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boeser is going back to college. He should make the jump the following season. I think Virtanen will be on the team on the 4th line with Granlund and Dorsett. The top 6 in this line-up look right. And I agree that Horvat and Etem will start on the 3rd line. The other guy will be Burrows. So: Daniel Henrik Eriksson Baertschi Sutter Hansen/Rodin Burrows Horvat Etem/Hansen Dorsett Granlund Virtanen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sedin Sedin Eriksson Boedker Sutter Hansen Baertschi Horvat Virtanen Etem Granlund Dorsett Gaunce Edler Tanev Hutton Gudbranson Tryamkin Larsen Pedan Well Boedker just signed with the Sharks. Also listening to WD it's unlikely for Baertschi and Horvat to play together. It's like last year where he heavily hinted that Vrbata wouldn't play with the Sedins - he did the same thing here re Baertschi-Horvat. Talking about how it's better for Horvat to play with defensive wingers and saying that Baertschi has a lot of work in the summer because he will be facing heavier and more physical Ds next season. Benning/Henrik say Sutter will be C2 and going by WDs comments - my guess is that Baertschi, as playmaker, is likely to play with Sutter the goal scorer in an offensive role. And Horvat will more likely play with Etem in a defensive role. That's how they finished the season with WD saying that he sees Horvat as a good checking C. He talked about how having Horvat in a defensive role was better for him. Also as of March they weren't playing together anymore except for injuries.

You might be right about Boedker...plus now he's a Shark. I recall Willies comments about Bo, but not sure if that will hold true this year as well. I like the idea of a kid line, but would be happy with any combination that performs. If Sutter is 2C and asked upon to produce offense, then he'll certainly need playmaking ability on his wing, and that's Baertschi all day long.
