Sujet: Even Better Next Year
I just made one of these called what caps should do. I definitely agree with not signing Alzner. Also agree with moving Orpik contract, but I just don't see another team trading for that contract given his age and length of deal. Also not resigning Oshie would be a mistake. Burakovsky has a great shot but he does not have the complete game or intangibles of Oshie (at least not yet). Oshie put up 33 goals and in today's NHL, goal getters are hard to come by, especially ones that also play well along the boards and without the puck. I mean, look at Pens. Not alot of depth anywhere but Crosby, Kessel, Malkin can provide the goals they need. I don't think caps can win a Cup without a second goal getter to Ovie.
I had the same top 4 for defense. Definitely smart to go young and fast at D in today's game. I think Wilson should at least be given top 9F. I had him top 6f. He might not have the greatest pure offensive skills but he adds physical presence playing with guys like Mojo and Kuzy and can win board battles and drive to the front. He will soon be a 15+ goal scorer imo. When he was drafted people said he had the possibility to become a Lucic type player and we have to hope for that. He's played well in the postseason.
