<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bhavikp27</b></div><div>"Issue" (if I could say) with Doughty is that there are too many options. But great to see you replaced him with a guy who "deserved" it.



Not really, Perry is a 4th liner, Getzlaf is a middle-six C and Toews's defensive game has regressed. Bergeron is still elite all-around and it's unlikely he regresses to the point of not making the team in only one year. He IS different than those guys. RNH is an option but not more than that. By the way, Couturier is more than likely to be on the team.

But I see you're an EDM fan and this is based on your personal preference. Overall, the team is similar to the one we'll see in 12 months.</div></div>

Yea, I guess I can see the case for Bergeron. Consistent Selke contention in your mid-30s is pretty impressive. Since the team will carry a few more than 12 FWDs, I'd say RNH still has a decent shot at being one of the extras but we'll see I guess.

Thread: minor improvements
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FullSend</b></div><div>If this makes room for a bigger trade then meh there is some justification. But I don’t feel great giving Cagguila for essentially nothing. If the rumors are true with Spooner being shopped around and no takers then I can see a reason to just dump him. I don’t know about Kassian I feel like Hitch is trying to put him in a role where he succeeds, if he prevails he can be an asset and accept a morale boost.</div></div>

Assuming our D will be back healthy, Manning will have to move because it'll cause even more difficulties to our cap situation and Bouchard should be ready if someone is injured. We really can't get much of a return for an overpaid 3rd d-man. Giving up Caggiula was a bad move by PC in the first place. And I was a bit reluctant in giving away Kassian, but 1.95 mil is a bit too much IMO. But yea he's a solid-fourth liner and his contract isn't too long so could be helpful to keep him. And that's the last year on Spooner's contract so I thought Carolina might be willing to give him a shot to bolster their scoring and the contract would not cause too many problems for them.
