What I really like about acquiring Goldobin (and to an extent Dahlen) is that it buys time for our other prospects so they don't have to be rushed. Goldobin's a bit more seasoned, he has pro experience and he can step in right away. Everybody's excited over Boeser and Gaudette, and is impatient about Virtanen but the more we add to our prospect pool the less pressure there is on those players to make an impact right away.
If we can get Dahlen signed and into Utica next season I'd say leave at least one of Boeser or Virtanen there, depending on how they perform in camp. Let them grow together, along with Gaudette if he turns pro. We'll have Horvat, Baertschi, Granlund, Goldobin, and hopefully Boucher and Gaunce taking strides with the big club - and who knows, maybe a top lottery pick too.
