Quantum Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 He'll likely be the Avs 7th or 8th d-man. If not, I don't think Hunt makes it through waivers. He's a very good depth defenseman and on a minimum -- someone else will have him on their roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Avs will be better off dressing 13 forwards. Once again dramatic and false he’s not even remotely that bad defensively. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually would have liked to keep him around for injury depth if nothing else. No big loss though... Yep, my only issue with him was lack of size and he got pushed around easily, other than that serviceable dman who can score at a good clip.

Spoosh Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 When we signed him I was a bit meh (didn’t share it on CDC, kept it to myself) but as the season progressed, his attitude kinda grew on me. I’m sorry but I’m kinda sad he is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did. Which is why I only wanted to re-sign him for depth but not to be permanently on the big club. He did bring some points, but was meh in virtually every other way on the ice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzle Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Brad Hunt was not nearly the plug that people thought he was. We just had incompetent coaching in Green that didn't use him well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, by all accounts, he is a great teammate. Never complains, always positive, tries to do his job. He will be a healthy scratch unless someone gets injured and won't complain about it. As @kloubek says, he is not really a "loss". Apparently the Canucks decided not to re-sign him. As they expect Rathbone to be on the NHL team, there was not a lot of room for Hunt. I wish him the best. Glad he was able to sign on with another NHL team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
