Both pairings need more traditional stay at home, defensive defensemen to compliment the offensive capabilities of both Hughes and Hronek respectively. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes is showing he can carry our top pair with AHL level partners. Love to get Tanev back, or a guy of that quality for his partner. That would free Quinn up to be more offensive minded 5 on 5. Hronek will carry our second pair. Not too sure who we could get to compliment him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boudrias Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 1 hour ago, coryberg said: He averaged over 16 minutes a game last season with Carolina. That would be #5 by a country mile on the Canes this year. His last game in a hurricanes sweater he played 22:57. He didn't want to play bottom pairing minutes in Carolina and was obviously not going to surpass their top 4 D so he wanted to move on. I'm not going to speculate on other reasons although I'm sure there were other factors. Wanting more playing time and not cracking a roster are 2 very different things. I really want to see Hronek play before a deal is made with Bear. Maybe a better idea about Meyers as well. They have until July. Term might become an issue. He is a 5/6 to me with the ability to move up if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer him. Price might be high though. Those are good choices all the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much would those guys cap be combined? Buoying out OEL and dumping Myers clears us 13 for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Severson I think will want 5-6 million for being a poor mans offensive D, he has been pushed out by marino (man I wish we got him on the cheap like jersey did), also has issues in own end at times 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree I would like a healthy Dermott in the lineup brings speed, he may never make it back unfortiunately Mayfield is not a top pair d man, he is a 5 at best imo but yes there is the Hughes effect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first guy is always injured, and Bear hasn't played many games either. I don't know about you guys, but isn't it a bit odd that Brisbois, Juulsen and Wolanin have stepped up and played just as well as those so called NHL'ers. For whatever reason Brisbois has never been given a sniff, but to me, he's passing the eye test. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point, where St. Louis is at, he might not cost that much. Doesn't use his size as much as he should but he's a pretty solid all around defenseman who might be looking for a change of scenery. He's in the Miller age range, mind you.
