I’ve mentioned this before, but if Vancouver decides to sell early this year I think Sam Gagner could be a good fit for that role. 4th line winger/PP specialist is basically the time he played in Columbus last year and was quite successful.
He won’t be a savior or anything, but he has the creativity and quick hands to make strong decisions on the powerplay. Very similar to Versteeg in that regard.
