Gradin’s Comments sound like the Twins are back for at least one more season, and Pettersson and Dhalen will be on our third line, playing sheltered 5 on 5 minutes, and second unit PP.  Who would be a good centre for them?  

As much as I love them I hope the Sedins hang em up after this season their minutes are too valuable... Daniel is leading the league in O zone starts with meager production to show for it. The youth should be taking the coosh mins while learning the game instead of sheltering nearly 40 yeaolds who often take 2 minute shifts that result in goals against because they are too slow to get the puck out and off the ice. They eat up a lot of high quality minutes I would like to see what the kids could do with those mins.

I think Gaudette is another diamond in the rough. 

He's got all the tools in his belt to be a dominant center in the NHL. He's fast, dynamic, hard-nosed, and plays the full 200 ft. He actually reminds me a lot of Boeser and that's an exciting thought.

I can see him being much like Bo Horvat, making him our other top 2 center.

That wouldn't be bad for a 149th pick.

 

Baertschi          Horvat          Boeser

Pettersson        Gaudette          ?

 

I really like the looks of that.

I think this guy is going to solidify our third line for years to come:

 

Petterson

Horvat

Gaudette

 

That's going to be dominate centre depth in a few years time.

 

My expectation is that Gaudette will sign in March and get a "9 game trial" like Boeser did last year and then snag a roster spot at training camp alongside Petterson.

Forget third line, this guy is our 2nd line center. No doubt it my mind.

This is how I see the top 6:

 

Petterson - Horvat - Boeser

Baerstchi - Gaudette - Virtanen

How can anyone say that a coach who won’t even try Virt in OT will ever have him as a 2nd line winger.

Virtanen maybe?  Dhalen? Goldobin is not bad either bro.  Maybe the man child or Kole Lind.

 

his stats he’s trending as a offensive centre.

The penalty messed up the OT lines.  Virtanen was playing in the final seconds in the 3rd.

Right, and I guess the shift Dowd and Loui got in the last minute of OT was us trying our best to win in OT. Got it.

???? How can you know this? The kid is only 21 yrs old. Who knows what his ceiling will be. He’s progressed miles in the last few years. Maybe he keeps going, you can’t really assume with players like this
