What’s up with Scandella?

 

I thought he was a good D man?

I wouldn't mind him if he came cheap enough, or Suter.  Giordano and Staal are both too washed up, and the rest aren't capable of playing defence.

Sign Ryan Suter to a 1 year, $1m-$1.5m as a depth piece?


Between him Scandella, or Shattenkirk whoever can still skate and thrive in a bottom pair role I’ll take.

We ran out of Petterssons?  Now we’re going after Suters?

Yes, and as a bonus, he's good at his job.

Daniel Sprong has pretty good advanced stats. We signed a lot of forwards but if he has to resort to a Puis Suter type deal he’d be a good add. Dmen there’s Kylington and Dermott actually have good advanced stats! I would bet on high upside add with Adam Boqvist. Injures have plagged him but he’s still young and if he can stay healthy I think he could be a good player still.

I thought Barrie was too 

Barrie's play in his own zone never approached an acceptable standard for a legit NHLer.

On defense, if we were to add someone else, I'd like someone that can move the puck. So Boqvist or Barrie. Kylington would be nice add as well.

 

As for forwards, I think we are pretty set, but I'd take a look at Kubalik or Blais if we are adding another.

I'm looking at the UFA forwards list and makes me think the Canucks are going to make a trade (Garland and picks) to bring in a top 6 winger. They might also sign some cheap depth D.

 

Hoglander - Miller - Boeser

DeBrusk - Pettersson - ?

Joshua - Blueger - Heinen

Podkolzin - Suter - Sherwood

 

Di Giuseppe/Bains - Aman/Smith - Karlsson/Lekkerimaki

Bag skate them and then see how they do in a pairing avec la girafe du chaos?  :hurhur:

I've been calling for Sprong since before the TDL.  Underrated player IMO.  

Tochett player?

would be my preference. All RD. All capable of moving the puck in the lower end of the d-corps.
 

cap is probably going to be difficult. Wouldn’t be surprised if they go the trade route instead.
