Description
The longer I look at it, the more perplexed I get about his future role. He'll almost certainly start the season in Hartford, but then I can't determine how he could get a promotion if the Rangers' left side stays healthy.

I presume one of Kreider or Lafreniere will be off the team for 2024-25, but does that spell a redshirt year for Brennan? Never going to understand why we drafted him over Laffy's Rimouski linemate Bolduc, who literally went the very next pick.

  1. Harding, Taige [Reserve List]
Additional Details:
Chicago has a glut of defence. I randomly picked a prospect I never heard of. Hawks fans can fill me in if this is an appropriate choice or not.

  1. Berard, Brett
  2. Goodrow, Barclay
  3. 2024 2nd round pick (NYR)
Additional Details:
Trying to mirror the Patrik Nemeth trade (2 2nds for C prospect Ty Emberson). Berard stands in for the second 2nd rounder, as New York is all out of them.

Usually, wingers can play either side, Othmann might be exclusively an LW in juniors but look for that to change as he goes into pro play. The same happened to Lafreniere, who was drafted as an LW but now plays either side (even if it had mixed results).

Yeah but the Lafreniere RW experiment has been nothing short of disastrous for his growth lol, and that was with him getting first line minutes to boost his new role. At least Othmann has *some* history of playing RW in juniors but for a prospect who took a step back in 2022-23, you don't want to convolute a trajectory that already needs a little bit of refocus.

I guess the most probable scenario here is maybe Othmann re-learns the right wing in Hartford?

Such claims can only go so far though. Like when Tony DeAngelo said he was comfortable playing left defence way back when lol. And not to mention, Othmann has been nearly all left wing in his past two years with Flint and Peterborough. I just don't see it happening.

Players are put into all sorts of weird situations in the AHL. Just going to put that out there.
