If you had a choice between Pesce or Hannifan, which would you choose, assuming the price was similar? Quote

Good question. Too close to bed time to decide that right now. Will try to remember to come back to it tomorrow. 1 Quote

For one more data point, I would prefer Pesce because I prefer his handedness, and think that he is more finely tuned to cover most of the things our defense corps lacks than Hanifin (who is by no means poorly-tuned for us) 1 1 Quote

There are too many pleasurable things to think about before hitting the sack. Ruminating over one of my hockey questions shouldn't be one of them. Sleep well and refresh yourself for tomorrow. It is going to be an exciting day for Sabre fans. 🍷 1 Quote
Curt Posted June 28, 2023 Report Posted June 28, 2023 I really feel like the top 4 D they bring in needs to be a righty, or a lefty who has played lots of top-4 mins at RD. I don’t want 21 year old Owen Power forced to play on the right side for 23 mins per game. Quote

bob_sauve28 Posted June 28, 2023 Report Posted June 28, 2023 Caleb Jones heading to free agency. I know nothing about him Quote
LGR4GM Posted June 28, 2023 Report Posted June 28, 2023 Jones is a left shot but I believe he played a bunch of right side in Chicago. Honestly for a 26yr old defender with size, I have no idea what Chicago is doing. He's 6'1" 194lbs so I should rephrase that and say "average size" Quote

Not that complicated. Where you can get better, you get better. Quote

LabattBlue Posted June 28, 2023 Report Posted June 28, 2023 I am on board the “trade #13 to make the team better ASAP” bandwagon…top 4 RD, 3C, or 1A/1B goalie. 1 Quote

If you are giving out free drinks it explains trading a 13th overall pick for a *checks notes* 3rd line center. Top 4rd though, I am there. 1 minute ago, Buffalonill said: Probably trying to give the other brother a message to say hey we don't want you either They signed Seth to his 8yr 9.5mil deal. I hope Chicago continues to give out crap deals like that. That franchise can rot. Quote

You never know who might be available. There can be a lot of value in a quality 3C. Right now candidates for 3C are Jost, Krebs and …. Quote
