Kinda wish Vrbata was coming back for another year. Eriksson takes the burden of scoring off of him. He'd slot in nicely with Sutter, while Bo and Baer anchor the 3rd

Which younger player is ready for a top 6 winger role? Outside of maybe Virtanen, I think everyone would buckle under the pressure. He's been historically named as a good presence in dressing rooms (McCann referenced this I believe) and it would add another scoring threat. Personally, I think Sutter would work out better than Bo because Vrbata is a triggerman...but Bo plays a more run-and-gun type of game. Sutter would give Vrbata the space and time to setup and fire. I just think it's a better pace for him personally

1.) We don't have the remaining cap for Vrbata
2.) He was quite vocal about his displeasure with how he was used here. I doubt he would even consider re-signing here.
3.) We need those two Second line winger spots for two of Rodin, Baertschi, Virtanen, Hansen, Burrows, whom are all already signed on to play here this coming season.
4.) Vrbata's production has dropped right off to the point where he no longer earns the cap hit he will surely be asking for in order to even consider playing here again.
All in all, I just don't see it.
