Thread: The year after next
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Borocop</b></div><div>I actually have a question for canucks fans. what do you think of Rafferty/ what is he? as an outsider, I think he's an intriguing option that i would like the sens to take a "flyer" (because he's 25 and hasn't played in the NHL) on with one of the cap dumps vancouver may be looking to send out to us, but ive also seen him as a highly ranked canucks prospect even when he was 23 and in the AHL so im not super sure what to think.</div></div>

He seems too good for the AHL. His offence seems good enough. The question is his defense. If there are no further defensemen signed he has a good chance to start next season on the bottom pairing. He has the potential to move up the depth chart over time, but still has lots to prove at the NHL level. Right now he is in the top defensive prospect mix with Juolevi and Rathbone, but he plays the right side which gives him an advantage on the Canucks. I’d say he has a 50-50 chance to make the NHL.
