Re: Johnson…those first two preseason games against a bunch of AHLers or worse is kind of hard to make judgements with. Lysell was better than Johnson in the last game, and that’s kinda the competition. But it’s early yet.
Think they said on the broadcast the B’s want to sign him.
Might be like Heinen last year and wait a couple weeks to sign for cap reasons….but I’d say it’s a 99% chance he signs a contract with Boston

Josh Brown is looking garbage as a Desharhais replacement. I think even with Travis Dermott being a LD, we will sign him. Kulak could always play his off side, he's done it before. I think this is even more likely if the management see's Kulak as the next expendable player cap wise if the club looks for an upgrade at RD around the deadline. Dermott could be a cheap 3LD option.

I'm not familiar if Dermott can play his off side. Someone can weight in on that perhaps.

Ekholm - Bouchard
Nurse - Emberson
Dermott - Kulak

7th D, Troy Stecher.

Trade deadline; target someone like Andersson out of Calgary.

Ekholm - Bouchard
Nurse - xxx
Dermott - Emberson

You make trading for your rivals young Top 4 RHD sound so casual.

He's been a regular target of discussion both on the mains and our board. A guy we'd overpay for if he's made available. Calgary traded in division twice with Vancouver last year and we reportingly were in on Tanev. I don't see the issue in mentioning him or a similar top 4 RD. I mean I know the trade cost will be heavy.
