He was 20 years old in limited minutes in his rookie year. I don't think he's going to be a 32 point player this year. Do you?
Again, I think we'll have a solid top six. You don't? That's cool.
We'll see who's right.
Yep. Bad things can happen. News at eleven. Bad things could happen with McG if we traded for him too.
There's absolutely zero reason to deviate from the plan here. Not now. If injuries happen or players don't produce, then you can re-evaluate.
It's almost certain that not all of these players will pan out. There will be injuries. There will be disapointments. But for you to say there's no forward depth is nonsense. And again, I think we need Barron more than we need McG. We have far more depth up front than we do at RD.
Maybe Barron doesn't pan out. But the potential is there. I don't see the hurry to ditch a 6'2 RD defenseman who can skate. Not for a player who'd slot in at a position we already have an abundance of players at.
