TheHitman Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 4 minutes ago, J.R. said: We actually had a pretty crowded blue line with Tryamkin sitting and Stech starting in the A. Injuries and Larsen not translating led to weakened depth as the year went on but to start we had 'too much' depth if anything. Talking about the 2015-16 season...either way, we can't sign everyone. Getting Raddysh and maybe Kerfoot as free agents is a huge win for us if it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toronto had weak defense ....zaitsev went there and was the 2nd best dman. Edmonton ...also weak on defense...Benning saw best of his oppertunity...went there. He would not have cracked canucks lineup. Caggiula ..i dont even care anymore he was barely noticable on ice expect fr a couple of big playoff goals..thought he was gonna play on wing with mcjesus ..got trolled. Shipachyov ....no other team could offer a better role and oppertunity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact is, of late we've done just fine with signing college and junior FAs, especially considering here are 29 other teams competing for the same limited pool. Garteig -- one of if not top G out of college Stecher -- prob top D out of college Chatfield -- called best shutdown D in OHL Molino -- none to shabby so far Holm -- SHL +/- leader ...but the Oilers, Leafs, Rangers, and Hawks always take every player we want... or did we "know" he was coming here?

SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Haven't seen anything saying we're out of the mix so I'd say we're still in on Raddysh. He was interviewed yesterday and was still listening to offers (or at least his reps were listening since Raddysh has been focused on hockey). Nothing decided yet. EDIT: I kinda expect it'll be wrapped up this week. I'd speculate we're third in line, probably after Tampa (because of Taylor) and Toronto (hometown), so it'll depend on whether or not those teams make offers.

I guess if TO wants him its hard to beat that... either way he's starting in the AHL next season so being in the AHL at home in TO vs. Utica might be a big factor for him. He may have a faster path on the right side with us tho if Tanev gets move this year or next and that bottom right side opens up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like the Canucks were coveting him early this year,. That can leave a lasting impression on an undrafted/overage player.. lets hope it does, the young man will be a solid d man where ever he lands.

Adarsh Sant Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 We did sign Chatfield, but let go of Olson and Neill. I assumed we would get at least 1 of Olson, Neill or Raddysh but I guess not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't blame him can we. Looking at our 2016-2017 season hard to see why any young prospect would want to come here. But we did 'win' one in Philip Holm. Not exactly a huge prize but he did pick us over the Hawks so I guess that's something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noble 6 Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 We need some empty contract slots, so it's not the end of the world. He did looks pretty good though. Hardly left the ice for Eerie during the Memorial Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
