<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PuckYourself</b></div><div>We don’t want Sam Gagner back, he gave incosistant effort and was often just plain not good. Harrington is becoming a good young defensemen in our starting rotation. I would trade Murray who is on a 1 year deal, is injury prone, and is probably signing with a new team this offseason anyway (even though he is playing well now). Savard could be traded too, he is a slow skating defender that gets beat by speed too often but plays well below the blue line and in PK. I think our most likely trade partners will be Florida Panthers, and Ottawa Senators. Werenski is actually our worst defender by goals allowed while he’s on ice. Seth Jones, Nutty, Harrington, Werenski, Carlson and Kukan are all 25 or under, most haven’t reached their prime and are the future of the Jackets.</div></div>

Fortunately, Murray can’t just sign with another team, he is still restricted (RFA) status. He is playing well, like a top pair D man, and Harrington and Nuti too. Carlsson can’t even get a roster spot. Savard is playing well too, he made a great assist last night on Panarin’s goal. I wouldn’t write Savard off just yet. Playoffs require experience and depth, especially at D. These guys are mostly young, but really good, just not flashy. There’s a lot to be said for the scouting and development over the last 5 or so years. The next wave coming up will be goaltenders...Veeti V., Elvis, and the Kid up in Cleveland, Kivliekens, I can’t wait to see them in the near future.
