Quoting: Bluetomorrow83
Yea, was referring to this past summer. Anyways what happens to Little when he returns seems like Wheeler is the #2C now and what value do you think he holds with his contract and age?
I'm not sure, probably not much given his age and contract as you say but I'm a big Little fan so I really hope he can return from this and get back to the player he was and shut up all his effing naysayers!
If Little does return he likely goes to 3rd line RW and struggles cause Adam Lowry is the worst 3C in the league and it's a line where offense goes to die!
Ugh, it's so frustrating, so much depth and the opportunity to have an actual 3rd offensive line that'd still be defensively responsible but I just know that Maurice won't put Little or Copp at 3C, he'll leave Lowry there and the entire bottom 6 will struggle because of it. Who knows though maybe Little and Copp or Perreault could drag Lowry to respectability but I highly doubt it, there's also a chance he drops Roslovic down to the 3rd line and either puts Little on Wheeler's wing or makes Little 2C again and puts Wheeler on his wing, hope that he keeps Scheiffele and Wheeler separated whatever happens.
On a positive note it sounds like Little is skating again every other day so that's encouraging, hope the guy is alright regardless of if he ever plays again, he seems like a class act.
