kloubek Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Again, Barrie is fine when paired with a quality defensive defenseman. But if we lose Tanev, we lack that player and already need one to watch the back of Hughes. I strongly feel we need another scoring D, but not as a replacement to the only good defensive blueliner we have. Besides, I expect Rafferty to push hard next camp and we also have Rathbone as an option soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devron Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 I can’t wait for this guy to sign somewhere else. Not a fan. Doesn’t help us at all. If we had more defensive stability I would be ok with adding him. I just don’t see it but maybe I’m wrong 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrie probably nets 50+ points play on #1 unit with Hughes. Would have to shed 1-2 guys though. Sutter/Benn/Baer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s how some of our most successful pairings have been set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracksuit Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 (edited) I don’t see Barrie as an upgrade over tanev he’s a downgrade defensively. and he doesn’t have better size Either Edited October 10, 2020 by Tracksuit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumdim Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Please please please Do Not Do This. The last thing they need is another small defenseman with mediocre skills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
