Thread: Here's some preseason poo!!!

We do have a huge hole - for example if Mitchell is going to be gone for another 6 to 8 weeks thats a good chucnk of the season gone

We can either play DD2 and see what happens or try for some help, this year is bit like a sprint not a marathon, I foresee more teams making moves especially if they go on a losing streak early on in the year

I don't want to give up Clifford or Lewis but Richardson is that little bit older, closer to his ceiling and did cost us a 2nd rounder when we got him (I think) so in terms of value he is pretty close

realistically though we're talking about 3-4 pair minutes and prime PK time. 20 minute plus D-men always in very high demand, particularly those on 1 year deals... DD2 and Slava in that slot. Definitely some tire kicking that needs to go down by DL but it's likely to cost more than Cliffy and picks.

Part of me thinks that Stewart actually does have huge potential, but obviously its a gamble. The guy has skills, but for whatever reason hasn't put it all together. Like, he made it, and then sort of relaxed or has never really put in the work to be great at this level. Chances are, he won't turn into anything here, but if somebody here can push the right buttons, he could potentially find another level. He's not going to turn into an all star or anything, but he's skilled and young enough that his career is not yet behind him.
