I know that he went and scored 17 goals and it may be hard to truly describe correctly, but man that guy has zero offensive Hockey IQ.I'd rather see them trade Frederic than Geekie
Freddy has the smarts to play on the 2nd line, maybe fit in on the first like heinen does as a complimentary player (people forget sometimes that you dont need a "True" top six player at every position in the top six. finding balance on your lines to beat matchups is the most important thing. hell it cost us a cup in 2019 probably (flat out refusal to balance lines 1-3).
Geekie never really fit with Pasta and zacha to me, pts aside, Id be fine trading him and giving someone in the system an opportunity to take a 3rd line role (Merkulov, Poitras or Lysell if any or all are still in the bruins system come game 1).
also, never liked Freddy at Center, but this year he actually played pretty well when slotted there, his game from a playing without the puck standpoint looked good. He should be playing with Coyle on his right (wherever Coyle gets slotted) as they work well together.
