Confirmed with Link: Alex Newhook for 31st, 37th and Fairbrother

[le_sean]

Has 4 goals in 14 games. On pace for 23 goals. Which is more like where he should be. His skill level I had Newhook around 25 goals, 50ish points.

23 goals…and 0 assists.

Newhook always had more assists than goals previous years

Okay but you can’t say he’s showing you exactly what you think he is, a 50 point player, when he’s currently on pace for less than half of that.

You think he has trade value?

with a 2nd pick yes.
cut there losses and get a 2nd line winger

He's a 3rd liner, without size, only so much hockey sense, and who can't protect the puck on the cycle I don't think we get a good second liner with a 2nd for Newhook.

I'd try him at c in the bottom 6. He did well last year with Armia and Roy or Gallagher.

WHERE ARE THE HATERS NOW????????

 

[Rapala]

Suzuki's best shift last night happened to be when he replaced Evans who had just finished killing a penalty.
Newhook/Suzuki/Slaf is something I would have already tried by now.

 

[The Great Weal]

He's not going to last here in the longterm. While we didn't need the picks, we should have looked at acquiring a vet instead.

Worth a try:

Newhook Suzuki Slaf
Caufield Dach Dvo/Evan's
Gallagher Dvo/Evans Anderson

I still think Newhook is a better center than Dvo. So I would put Dvo on the wing and Newhook at C. And I'm not sure Dach is ready to go back to C. Newhook really brings his value down on the wing by not being able to win puck battles or protect the puck on the wall.
