I have a sneaking feeling that Kenney Morrison might steal the #4 spot in training camp
Gio-Hamilton
Brodie-Morrison
Russell-Wideman
Engelland
Might make the most sense. Morrison looked like a right handed version of Brodie last season in Adirondack and was the best guy at the development camp. That would also allow each pairing to have a left shooter and a right shooter, which would be perfect. If there are games where you need more physicality you could always throw Engelland in there instead of Morrison.
I think that if Smid is healthy that he might be the odd man out. Between Smid and Engelland, they both have the same role on the team but I would rather have Engelland due to him not being injury prone. The Flames would likely have to eat some $ to deal him, but some team could use a decent #6 for 2 seasons.
