I think we can all agree that we need a decent second line center. Roy is starting to break out to become that number one center we've needed for awhile. Hecht can't do the job, you can't depend on Connolly if he's going to be out with injuries and Gaustad isn't second line material. The only thing he can seem to do lately is win faceoffs consistently for us.
I'm sure there's a lot of guys in the NHL we could get for a small price, but it's just if Darcy realizes we need it. Which is probably an automatic no.
you have to ask where they see Adam fitting in as well... If they see Adam being that 2nd line C next year would they go out and get a real 2nd line C? And isn't Kassan (spelling) a C as well? those two guys could be with the big club next year...
If I was running the team, I would, because it would allow me to move Adam to 3rd line C and have Goose/Neids battle it out for 4th line C... if you look at how the Pens are built, they are simply stacked down the middle... Sid-Geno-Stall-Max-Flury/Johnson ..... right down the middle of the ice, they are stout... the Sabres can't say that...
Roy is showing he can man the 1C... Timmy is screwing the pooch and shouldn't be resigned... Neids has been hurt all year which leaves you with Stuart and Adam filling in and Goose is a solid 4th line C and solid face of guy...
I say build the middle... a solid top 6 winger and 2nd line C and this team can be scary... Im happy with the D currently and like the depth there. I may consider moving Butler or Sekera to give Weber a little more ice time, but i do like the D...
Miller likes Patty LaLa... and Miller likes to play a lot, so Im not sure what you do with back up goalie...
Id like to see Timmy and Staff with maybe a Butler or Sekra type of package to try and bring in a little top 6 help... I think that would go a long way and with the guys we have coming up, the team could be solid for a while....
Kassian is the RWer that we've been waiting for Drew Stafford to be for three years. Also, I'd rather just keep Enroth up here as the backup. It's sad that I feel more comfortable with him in net than a vet like Lalime.
