If only John Tavares was 5 days younger | | 5 freakin days and we would still be in position to get an impact center. Time to start campaigning to get a petition to the league to get him eligible THIS year. Well, one can hope and dream right? As much as I am deeply concerned about next year, I don't think we will be bad enough to have a really good shot at him. That begs the question, who can be a true #2 center. Zues: no, Army: no, Boyle: doubt it, Lewis: no way. That doesn't leave much. The UFA pool is not impressive at that position so a trade might be the only way to fiill this hole effectively. Maybe if the Sharks tank Marleau would be available after all those early rumors, but I dout that would happen since they are in the division. What do we do? Maybe moving Cammy or Sully is a temporary solution, but this is definately a "box" that needs to be filled. I know we need D-men BADLY, but we can't just ignore or deficiencies elsewhere. |
