Quoting: xercuses
I see that but again rn we have
Krug, leddy, Scandella, Mikkola, Scotty p, Rosen, Tucker, Smakurov all pretty much nhl caliber
again with loof too its such a big log jam.
But if we are able to get rid of like 3 of thses guys for forwards or forward prospects / picks then id take harley in a heart beat
Also yes ik scandellas hurt but he may be back next season
Okay, well setting aside that Harley has way more value moving forward than any of those guys, let's go through them.
Krug, leddy - at least one would be moved, hopefully whether they can score a Harley or not
Scandella - not sure how fit he'll be moving forward, and if he is, he can be a 3rd pairing/PK guy or be moved for a reasonable cost
Mikkola - a UFA, though perhaps one they want to keep
Scotty p - stay on one piece for long enough and then we'll talk
Rosen - he will be in the mix somehow
Tucker - has looked pretty good for the most part, but again, not a top 4 guy
Smakurov - barring some late development blow-up, he's pure depth
And as Army has learned from every playoff run since we won the Cup, you can never have too many capable D-men. Half the guys you listed are dirt cheap, and three of them can safely go to the minors if needed.
