Why did we get rid of Steckel again?
I'm having a hard time believing anyone would rather want Boyd Gordon as 4C than David Steckel.

thats if komarov signs

but yeah.. i dont mind that.. and for rougher games you can pull colborne out, insert mcclement, shift gordon over and insert orr

I thought Orr was a UFA too, doesn't matter we're signing Clarkson anyway so we'll still have a tough team.

yeah see how they play, u can move em around.

id honestly keep colborne in the AHL to start the season - injuries will happen and we know both mcclemment and gordon are versatile and could play wing on line 3 or 4...hell id be ok having mcclemment fill in top 6 if it were just a few games.

i dont know.. i liked colborne's energy in the playoffs.. i honestly think he is ready to make the jump

just flank him with experience

Orr is a UFA, my bet is they resign McLaren and not Orr, cheaper, younger and no need for both taking up roster spots, need to get Colborne in there (if he is resigned). A million per for Orr is a waste of cap space.

disagree LM.. lose one and carlyle's philosophy goes out the window if you dont have someone to jump in to play that role.

Yeah i dont really see a point in gordon if we had steckel before.. steckel was 6'5, even a guy like paul gaustad wouldnt make sense since aren't they similar?

He's due. How much more is he going to learn in the A. We need to find out if he's an NHL player or we move on to the next option.

yup... i think so too.. its time.

his slump that spanned from late last year through early this early also happened to coincide with his wrist injury (think it was wrist.. that or hand)

i do agree i liked colborne's game when he came up, im just saying it was a VERY small sample size, thats all.

if colborne is ready than what we really need is our centers to improve their faceoffs..
