Honestly, a guy like Jeff Petry should be in the mix.
Big, calming D, who can play a lot of minutes. - IanEsplen
On one hand you're right, he should be considered.
On the other hand, with his contract coming up in a year's time and him being doing for likely a significant raise, they may strategically exclude him from the conversation. |

But then you'd be able to whine and dine him into a 12 year deal |

It was clever. Speaking of which, why hasnt anyone mentioned Dubs as our next captain? - doon
Well for starters he needs to focus on not letting in soft, back breaking goals that cost the team games. Being captain may take away from his focus on being consistent. |

When has making a goalie the captain not worked out? |

Isn't that against the rules now? It would be sweet though. |

Good to know. Im not sold on Dubs yet, this is his year to prove himself. If he is top 12- 15 in the league, im good with that. We should have enough scoring in front of him to make up for some soft goals now and then. - doon
Agreed that this is the year. The team can't really expect to make the playoffs if he doesn't get is poop together for the whole year. The team should score enough yes, but those close games where goals are hard to come by, need to be stolen by Dubs if they are gonna squeak into a playoff berth. |
