The Sens first, first rounder, third overall, Tim Stuetzle broke a bone in his arm training today over on Germany. He will miss 6-8 weeks play in the German League but should be fine by December, which means he should be good to go for Sens camp and the 2021 NHL Season.
Back to Rumors..
I think it is safe to say that we are currently in a wait and see period in the NHL right now when it comes to unsigned players. There are some whom I feel will still get some play, but how much play and more importantly, how soon is VERY much up in the air. We are looking at very few teams who can do anything at all right now.. On Hoffman.... Mike Hoffman can flat out score, but besides putting up points he has some serious deficiencies in his own zone and picking up his back check. But there are teams who very much need goals...and help on the power play. Hoffman is one of those players. to be sure. Who is interested? Nashville, Columbus, Florida, Nashville... longshot..Montreal, Buffalo, Boston
On Dadonov... Less than Hoffman. Better two-way player...Florida would like to keep him. The Islanders and Preds are also in on him as are the Devils... On Duclair... Florida hold lots of cards in this right now...and they like Duclair too issue is Anthony is his own agent...and has had some consistency issues
more to come on Granlund, Haula, Gostisbehere and more...
