Hope they don’t cut dellandrea. Third or fourth line for him please.
Any guesses, at how many bottom six players we see in action this season? We could see a revolving door. Hope not. Lets look forward to consistency.
The Sharks have enough bottom-6 appropriate guys that someone like Giles or Afasaneyev need to step up and grab jobs and produce. If we’re talking a revolving door of sub-replacement level players like Grundstrom and Dellandrea anymore, the Sharks might as well dress Reavo twice a week. The Sharks are going to start the season with an 18 year old, two 19 year olds, and a 20 year old as their most important players. No one wants to look back and say they needed protecting after something happens. Reavo is an option and affects the tone of a game with 6 minutes of ice time more than a basket of sub-replacement bozos in their second season here.
Misa – Wennberg – Kurashev as your third line with Graf in the middle 6 feels way more solid than last year with some real scoring touch.
JD sleeping on Regenda for the scoring pop
