Chucky is a great player but I have my doubts on how great he’ll be as he creeps closer to 30. His skating is below average and the game isn’t getting any slower.
He’s phenomenal down low below the goal line when can use his body but the Atlantic division is tough, and it’s getting even better with Ottawa and Detroit now making forward strides.
This is a good deal for us, if we don’t extend either of Huberdeau or Weegar then we can (hopefully) flip them for great returns at the deadline or sooner. I hope tre has learned his lesson when it comes to players on expiring contracts.
