Be very nice to get both a partner for Hughes and a young centre to play on our third line. Nah, their top prospects are wingers and D. But as others have mentioned, Sharangovich would make a nice add. 24 year-old forward with size who scored 24 goals last year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have enough defensemen who are “not bad defensively” We need a young D that excels in his own end. Severson doesn’t fit the bill. Hard to believe how much the ask has fallen from fans. From Lafreniere, Schneider and a 1st to Severson. Glad our GM is sticking to his guns. No I mean he’s NOT, bad defensively. We’re not subtracting 90-100 points by adding him that is speaking out of complete ignorance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not panicking yet about this management team, but increasingly I’m finding this kind of thing not so hard to believe. I’ve yet to see a single thing in terms of the vision and creativity I was expecting to see in their first off season. Their much ballyhooed intention of repairing the cap space situation has been a complete flop so far. They sure talked a good game when they came in though. Yeah, yeah, I know technically its’ still “early” in the offseason and I’ll wait…but…the clock is ticking. Already seen a bunch of teams do things that have removed some of our own options from the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitzgerald explained that adding Haula allows to play Mercer in the top-6. Sharangovich has been used a winger cuz of NJD's depth, but was drafted as a C and plays a good two-way game. Could make the transition back here a la Miller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24K PureCool Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 (edited) Oh well, I already made peace with the fact Miller is walking for nothing or traded for nothing of use. Edited July 16, 2022 by 24K PureCool 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a solid top-4 RHD with a big frame, good in all three zones with a solid transition game. Not many of those around I did reading on Sharangivich and he’s a big (younger) centre. Pits up points too. Miller for Severson + Sharangovic sounds pretty good. Get up off your park bench, and get ‘er done JR! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s been a top d for that them during some dark years with not a lot of help. Severson is a quality Canadian puck moving dman who ain’t a liability in his own end similar to OEL in that regard if we got Severson + Mercer and 1st round pick id pretty happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already seen a bunch of teams do things that have removed some of our own options from the table. Getting the most highly pursued non-NHL free agent not enough for you? Benning overpaid to make things happen. Contrast that with Sakic, who everyone was saying held into Matt Duchesne for way, WAY too long. How’d that work out for those guys? …Patience, young grasshopper… 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are better players that will be left without contracts though. If we trade two forwards I see Joshua definitely making the roster. Dickenson is prime for a bounce back season. He has been too good for too long. Honestly I really like the idea of Dickinson-Lazar-Joshua being our fourth line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HighOnHockey Posted July 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 16, 2022 47 minutes ago, DeNiro said: It doesn’t make any sense at all actually. Severson is a UFA after the season and just put up almost 50 points. He’s gonna be asking for 7 mil. And he’s almost 28. Plus I thought we were looking for a D man that’s good in his own zone not another puck mover… Miller also has one year on his contract. Severson is actually very good in his own zone, in addition to being an outstanding puck-mover. You don't want a pure stay-at-home defenseman paired with Hughes who can't contribute to moving the puck out of the zone or that's just going to mean more defensive zone time for Hughes, which wouldn't be good for anyone. You want a defenseman who can be to Hughes what Toews is to Makar and Girard - someone who can help cover for him in the defensive zone but can also skate and move the puck with him. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize that but watching Sharangovich play a lot, I think he could handle the transition back even if he hasn't been utilized that way at the pro level yet, a la Miller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or you know... Nemec stays in the minors for a year, Severson walks as a free agent at the end of this year, then Nemec takes the spot vacated by Severson. Not that bizarre.
