They're the second line let's face it. i think right now we can be flexible with the line number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How's Virtanen with the Sedins? Did he stick with the Sedins the whole game? Got a point with em. Sutter lead forwards in ice time, Dorsett was 3rd behind Horvat.

These guys will sign for 3-4 million just to give the team a better chance. Just wait and see. Question is would they consider playing separate to not drag down the speed of a line? Each year the NHL gets significantly faster how much longer can they keep up for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's wait and see if they can muster a 40-50 points season then I might resign them to a year to year deal like Doan but as long as it is not over 3 million dollars for what they bring. Truthfully, if Benning feels that 4 lines are more than ready and is better than Sedin then it's time to move on. I would prefer that this will be their final year unless they decided to sign for less than 2 million dollars. If that is the amount, then the cap would be freed up for up to 10 million dollars and could fetch us first liner or a top D, depending on who is available. If there is no available top scorer or D then it's best to leave that cap open for a future trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldnews Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Good systems and extra viable depth. Without two of their top 4, they still looked fairly solid and dominated the possession game tonight - that it was a travel back to back is promising. Really impressed by Pouliot's play without the puck - he's stepped in and been quietly very responsible and effective defensively - see no reason that would hold him up at this point - if he continues to play like he is he's going to force a difficult decision upon Edler's return.

Kyle Turris and Evander Kane would be nice replacements on the top line for the Sedins. 2 BC boys both UFAs in the Summer. Then you could get a Tyson Barrie for Hutton and a Goldobin package or something maybe and then the Canucks look like something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too. Making the right plays. Not the flashiest skater or puck handler but very sound positionaly. I think the Pens thought he was Kieth/Doughty type of player because of how he dominated the CHL offensively. But in the end if he is a solid 3-5 guy, that’s better than what Pedan’s ceiling is projected to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see Hutton being forced out Travis Green knows and trusts Pouliot. Hutton has size but doesn't play physical doesn't have a great shot either or great offensive numbers. Could be redundant now with Stecher and Pouliot present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldnews Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Nice to see Virtanen pushing himself - and get rewarded. He creates a whole different dynamic for the Sedins - is backing opponents off and creating ice for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
