Regardless of whether the Hughes-to-RD experiment works out well, the Canucks should be looking for more young Dman options on both sides of the ice. With the team looking to compete in the immediate window, it might make sense to give up a pick to add a just-about-ready prospect into the fold. Walsh has been good at both the college and the AHL levels since he was drafted, but doesn't look to have a lot of opportunity on the Devils right side anytime soon.

If he's ready for full or even part-time NHL duty this year -- great! Otherwise he's still waiver exempt and could be first call-up when injuries hit, and earmark him for Schenn's spot next year after another strong AHL season.

What say you?
