Hoffman

Hoffman is a great add for the PP, offensively he's good, that's it. Move Bjork for a top4 LD if we get him

That's what I was thinking. Bjork likely odd man out if Hoffman comes in. Defense just looks incredibly shaky with very little money if Hoffman comes in..possibly Nick Ritchie gets moved or put on waivers. Sometimes we just gotta accept defeat with some trades and Nick Ritchie looks like a trade that is lost. Not sure if he quite fits the dynamic of the fourth line. Fourth line is about aggresive, fast paced along the boards and behind the net. Would have to think Frederic or Senyshyn (or Bjork for that matter) fit better with Kuraly and Wagner than Nick Ritchie would

Kevan Miller resigning just scratches my head. I'm not entirely sure if a team would claim Kevan Miller if he were to get sent down to Providence. Zboril, Lauzon, Senyshyn need roster spots and there is very limited room on this team. There's gotta be more moves coming, I'd much rather see Vaakanainen in this lineup somehow but he's more than likely starting the year in Providence based on the others needing to be in the NHL due to waivers

If BOS can land Hoffman that means JD or Bjork is likely out for a LD. Most likely JD.
