That's quite general isn't it? Caufield was taken 15th, does that eliminate him from being good?
Struble might get sent down as he has options. We have to protect Harris and Barron. If Hutson makes team.
I feel bad for Struble if he gets sent down. But at the end of the day, he can still learn a lot at this stage of his career in the AHL. He can perfect the finner points of his defensive game, as well as grow his offensive game. Same with Xhekaj.
Barron is a NHL D on skating alone, the issue is that in is zone or without the puck he is a lot more hesitant and less confident… that should get better with experience. I understand that he isn’t perfect but I don’t see the point of try to get rid of him just to get rid of him…
He still has to learn somethings to become a good NHL dman. Time will tell if he can learn them.
