Thread: Roster Put Together Just For Fun
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>fly_iggles_fly</b></div><div>I hadn't heard about Giroux saying that. But IMO the main reason he was moved to wing was severe defensive deficiency. Which is why Coururier is a perfect match for him at center. And also why splitting up G and Coots (and moving G back to center) is a bad idea in my opinion.

I really hope we don't sign Karlsson. I also think he'll get more than that projection you used. Is that the Evolving Hockey projection?</div></div>

Giroux is one of the best 200 foot players in the league, is always on the PK in important times, and only moved to the wing to focus more on offense. Something this team needed desperately when the change was made. Now that you have a player who has averaged 90 points in the two years since he has moved, you don't move him back. How many 90 point guys are there in the league, how many 100 point guys? If you have a hole in a spot vacated by one of these players, you go find another to "try" and replace him.
