Not sexy but has many double digit goal seasons, 17 & 18 goal years recently.

 

At that price it’s a good middle 6/bottom 6 addition, I like it.

Heinen is a really solid pick up

Not sure how these pieces fit yet.

 

Debrusk is not really a top liner, so does he slot in with Miller?

 

Heinen is a 3rd liner and we have Joshua there… do we put on of them in the top six or do we rely on depth and put Heinen on th3 4th line.

Heinen can play anywhere in the top 9, both C or W. DeBrusk likely with Pettersson.

No he can’t… Heinen has averaged 10-14 minutes a game in most of his career.  If he is in our top six, that is like putting Lafferty there.

 

Debrusk will probably go with Petterson but that isn’t adding a real top line guy.

He scored 17 goals & 36 points last season, has had multiple seasons around those numbers. Hes a utility player like Suter.

Debrusk-Petey-Hoglander

Suter-Miller-Boeser

Joshua-Blueger-Garland

Sherwood-Aman-Heinen

 

As of now...

 

Pretty sure this is what they're running with and upgrade on the wing if needed during the season. 

 

Leaves 5m to get a top-4 RD which we're still missing

 

Hughes-Hronek

Soucy-???

Forbort-Myers

I could see them really go after Necas in the summer 

now that they have debrusk 


Hogz+ Podz for Necas 

 

debrusk Petey Necas 

Heinen Miller Brock

It may be the secondary market for us for sure.  It isn’t the worst to have cap space all the way up to the end of training camp.  Solid players shake loose.

 

I don’t know if Necas still moves after Guentzel is off the board, but I do that deal.

 

If Hoglander is still on the top line, you need a better player than Debrusk there.   With two decent upgrades like Necas and Debrusk it could work.

 I don’t like splitting combos that work. I think Miller and Brock are like our McDavid/Drysaitl combo.

 

Blueger with Garland and Joshua was one of the best 3rd lines last year.
