[Proposal] 4th Line RW if Weise is not re-signed.


Recommended Posts

.. We already have what we need. Jannik Hansen, he's definitley better than a 4th liner, even a 3rd, but it would give our 4th line 3 responsible players. Santorelli, Richardson, and Hansen.

D.Sedin-H.Sedin-Kassian

Booth-Kesler-Jensen

Higgins-Gaunce-Burrows

Santorelli-Richardson-Hansen

Those 3 players are all great 4th liners and even decent 3rd liners. LaRose is pretty clutch, playoff performer and has a Cup ring so I'd love to get his experience on our team to help our younger guys. 1M deal, 1 yr.

Burrows - Kesler - Booth

Hansen - Richardson - Higgins

LaRose - Santorelli - Jensen

Colby Armstrong:

Bought out by Toronto, not re-signed by Montreal because the GM didn't want to renew his contract, still a UFA

Sounds like an amazing player to me!

I like Chad LeRose though

Remember Weise is going to arbritration and the Canucks cannot walk away from any offer less the 3.5 million, so he is basically resigned and most likely on the 4th. I like Weise, he can skate, hit and contribute to the play even if he sucks at fighting.

Armstrong has look terrible the last couple years, I think injuries have really slowed him down. Larose and Kobasew are decent options but I would like to see a more physical 4th liner, doesn't have to be a fighter but a intimidating hitter would be nice. Smithson, Brent, Steckel, Lombardi, Gillies, Latendresse are all options

I also like Kaspars Daugavins as an option on the 4th

You should put Smithson on that list, good faceoff, can kill PKs, big, uses the body.

But out of the 3 I would probably pick LaRose since he can play in the top 9 and 4th line.

That looks pretty deadly.
