How many games do you wait to see where things are at before you start executing plans to address:
- backup goalie
- certain guys paid to score that don’t (sharangovich)
- young guys who need a spot (Gridin, Parekh)
- complete lack of players that can finish
- unbalanced lineup. Too many 3rd line type forwards. (Zary playing 4th line??)
- put Parekh on PP1 that’s where he adds the most value
- Farabee off PP1 for Huberdeau
In my mind they could cobble together a half decent team with a couple of moves and getting Huberdeau/Pospisil back.
- Anderson out for a goal scorer and make room for Parekh
- Huberdeau back in with Kadri so he’s not playing by himself
- Sharangovich launched into the sun to free up a spot for Gridin so he doesn’t get sent down due to waiver implications. Think this one is impossible though.
- Try Cooley and ???? For 4 or 5 starts then look for a vet journeyman backup if it doesn’t work.
- Kirkland probably waived when Pospisil back.
I know it’s early. But Anderson not being traded and a few underperforming vets and a few over performing rookies that need spots have made the roster makeup really messy in my mind. The team needs a couple of trades to rebalance things in my mind.
Does anyone else agree?
