Carlo has to be an upgrade, let’s go.
Slotting in 3 good 2nd pair Ds as your 4/5/6 dmen while trading away another good 2nd pair dman strikes me as overkill.
Maybe but our Blueline sucked last year. The pre season Doms though it was meh at best and it performed like one of the worst in the league. If that's not an excuse to tear it the fuck down and rebuild I don't know what is.
Yes Stecher Carlo Benoit Myers are terrible.

Fuck man not how I meant it lol
I hope we’re able to find a team that over values Carlo. And it’d be nice to find some upgrades off the scrap heap for cheap. Would be nice to be the team that finally makes some smart decisions.

McCabe - xxxx
OEL? - Tanev
That’s a lot of work to get done in one offseason. We need an overhaul.
OEL was far far far better than a 3rd pair D this year (and sweden's #1 at the WC) and McCabe-Tanev were the best shutdown pair in hockey last time we saw them, in insane usage.He's got McCabe slotted in on the left side of the second pair, which is where, ideally, he should be. And the third-pair is also ideally where Tanev and OEL should be at this stage of their careers.
Though making the necessary additions to accomplish that in one summer will be a herculean task.
Yeah, people confuse the all time shit performance of our four bottom guys as being representative of the whole. Our good guys, minus the shit guys, plus two UFAs and Danford and it suddenly might be one of the best corps in the league. In just a few weeks.OEL was far far far better than a 3rd pair D this year (and sweden's #1 at the WC) and McCabe-Tanev were the best shutdown pair in hockey last time we saw them, in insane usage.
Feel free to check out the 3rd pair dmen on the two cup finalists at the moment.
