Not even same stratosphere as Boldy. But I still think he merits a long look. You can count the better finishers than him on one hand.
I don’t think he’s even in the conversation in Guerin’s mind based on how he wants his players to play. There’s a hell of a lot more accomplished scorers that play involved hockey they will be looking at.

Is Faber gone or am I just not paying attention?

Never mind I'm just not paying attention
Honestly, I didn't notice him much in the 3rd period either. He just played a steady, quiet game, I think. And when you're ahead in the game, that's fine.

I think that'd be a mistake. It would remind me of when they left Bobby Ryan off the roster, and proceeded to have trouble scoring. I think, on a team full of fairly complete players, there's room for a single guy who is merely a supremely dangerous shot.

I can’t see scoring being an issue with that team. Kyle Connor can play the pure shooter role that Caufield would fill while also being a much better player for the team. This team projects to have a ton of fire power and the more interesting decisions will be who and how many people they choose to fill the grunt level roles. Don’t need someone like Caufield mucking up the works on the lower lines because he’s surely not in the top 9 on this team at wing.

Yeah I wasn't trying to criticize or anything, just making sure he wasn't injured like everyone else.
