You're analysis is correct, Henriques time on the team was signaled to be limited with the signings of Strome and Vatrano, and Kulikov is a pending UFA. As was mentioned by my fellow Anaheim fans, we are really looking for another 1st in this year's draft.
With respect to SDA, we really do not need any more center prospects, our average center age in our top 9 is only 21 years old. SDA does have experience on NA ice which Verbeek values, but he is rather lacking in size. I think we'd rather have a 3rd round pick than SDA, as we may start using our picks to try and trade for roster players were interested in.
