Fabian Zetterlund traded to Ottawa

Gaudette, Highmore and Hamonic
For some reason I always mistake Highmore for Halliday. Didn't realize Highmore was 29 and not a prospect. I agree about Gaudette too. He's a decent offensive player, but not someone I still fully trust in the D zone. Since Zetterlund has been added to that line I trust them more.

Something I'm looking to see from Staios is how he handles coaches favourites. If he lets go of Gaud and Hamonic while finding adequate replacements (which are all league min players probably) that'll be a huge green flag. Green is doing a great job, but he has his flaws as well. A GM that can act as a 'check' when coaches overplay certain players (especially in situations where there's alternatives available) is refreshing.
 
I f***ed up though, I changed the whole TV/Internet/mobility provider and didn't know but they don't have PVR even if owned the same company! I f***ed up big and will get it back once we move in a few months.
For a top 6 guy like you I'd be happy to share one of my several SN+ account logins. The catch is you gotta admit that our rebuild is WAAAY ahead of Montreal's...

There's 14 forwards in Ottawa with 200 minutes of 5 on 5 hockey

Gaudette is 1st in ga/60, 3rd in xGA/60
Highmore is 7th in ga/60 and 1st in xGA/60.

Added bonus. Gaudette is 1st in gf/60.

I'm not much for some of these advanced stats, I certainly don't live and die by them. But these two players are contributing in limited roles.

And don’t forget that epic Highmore-backcheck-to-knock-a-sure-goal-out-of-the-air-at-a-critical-time-of-the-game moment

Sorry lol I rationally can't use "WAAAY" but thankfully, Staios work since he took over has allowed them to stay ahead for now but you gotta admit that with Dorion we were free falling fast. Too bad the team was not sold a bit earlier. Some people have a hard time to differentiate what they would want vs the reality. I wanted Ottawa to be ahead for years and years to come but with how well it went for them vs the last 3 Dorion years in particular, it's impossible for me to not see that it got much closer (when it should not be)
