And Connor Carrick is the guy they took from New Jersey. Just waiting for them to waive Kole Lind. That would be epic... Teams are trying to sneak good players through now while other GM’s are still evaluating their own prospects. Montresl did the same thing with Vejdemo. He’s almost NHL ready but won’t crack the roster just yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked like a legit 2nd pairing D with size until he took two pucks to the face in the same game. He never really recovered his game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

86Viking Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 2 hours ago, Elias Pettersson said: I agree. Didn’t Quinn say he liked playing the right side? If so why not at least try him out there. Didn’t Erik Karlsson play primarily on the right side? There are many more options for D partners for Quinn who are LHD. I think we should explore that versus trying to find a RHD. Don't think coach Green likes guys on their off side unless it is absolutely necessary ie: injuries. Karlsson is a right shot D so he is playing on his normal side, maybe he played LHD at some point tho? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

70seven Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) Clague is better than Juolevi imo. Fleury is interesting. Edited October 3, 2021 by 70seven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzle Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 7 hours ago, Elias Pettersson said: I believe the entire Red Army team including all the forwards were left shots. It was incredible. I guess they didn't teach players to shoot right until the 80's. Green, for whatever reason, doesn't like to play guys on their off wing. Even Podkolzin is playing left wing right now. Quinn is all over the ice so it doesn't really matter what side he plays really. We could get a LHD who is also comfortable on the right side to play with him. Maybe Tryamkin is available... He needs to stop with this silly nonsense. Many players are quite well-versed to play on their off-wing. Garland, despite his brilliance in Arizona, has looked quite ineffective in Green's system so far. Even Podkolzin looks lost. We keep getting outplayed/outshot. Something is off with his system/philosophy. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We keep getting outplayed/outshot. Something is off with his system/philosophy. I noticed that as well. If this team gets off to a lousy start I can see Green getting the axe quite quickly. There is no reason this team cannot make the playoffs this year. Benning had an incredible summer really. It's up to Green now to put the pieces into place. I'm not sure he is the guy to do that. I never felt that he was from the very beginning. I hope I am wrong though because it would be a disaster if we had to find a new coach mid season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTramFan Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 I like the idea of taking a flyer on Cale Fleury. And, unless there are injuries (other than Gourde), then Seattle will need to waive at least one of these guys in order to reach a 23-man roster: Sheahan, Bastian, Blackwell, Geekie, Lauzon, H Fleury, Borgen We should try to pick up whomever of that group is waived as they could be a fill-in 4C or a depth RD.

Dazzle Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 I think we can pretty much say that Ron Francis is a clueless GM. What a disastrous expansion draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
