Line Combos: 2016-17 Roster prediction

[iloveloov*]

Well, they were booted in the first round, weren't they?

So Chicago lost contender status by losing to St. Louis in 7? Last year at this time Toews had just won another cup after scoring 65 pts.

 

[ginner classic]

Prediction:

Sedin Sedin Eriksson
Baertschi Horvat Rodin
Burrows Sutter Hansen
Gaunce Granlund Dorsett
Etem
Virtanen (AHL)

Edler Tanev
Hutton Gudbranson
Tryamkin Larsen
Pedan Schultz

Sbisa traded
Schultz UFA - 1.75
Eriksson UFA - 7 x 3

 

[canucks10]

Sedin - Sedin - Hansen
Baertschi - Horvat - Lucic
Rodin - Sutter - Virtanen
Dorsett - Granlund - Burrows
Etem
Gaunce

Edler - Tanev
Hutton - Gudbranson
Sbisa - Tryamkin
Larsen
Pedan

Miller
Markstrom

Lucic signed to massive contract that will cripple the team in 3 years time

 

[jeromemorrow]

Prediction:

Sedin Sedin Sutter
Baertschi Horvat Virtanen
Burrows Helm Hansen
Etem Granlund Dorsett
Gaunce


Edler Tanev
Hutton Gudbranson
Sbisa Larsen
Pedan Tryamkin

Helm UFA - 4 x 3.5

 

[Cancuks]

I'll stick with my prediction of Helm 5 years 4.33/ yr.

Also, I think once they strike out on Eriksson/Lucic/Ladd Benning will panic and trade the Columbus 2nd round pick and Cole Cassels for Scott Hartnell/Nick Foligno or something along those lines.

Daniel-Henrik-Sutter
Baertschi-Horvat-Hansen
Hartnell/Foligno-Helm-Virtanen
Etem-Granlund-Dorsett

Good enough for another top 5 pick IMO.

I like Foligno tbh. His contract is at $5.5m for 5 more years... hmmmm....

Damnit.. trading away 2nd Round picks again.. UGHHH!! Haha.. let's hope we don't resort to that again.

But "there's a cost to doing business." Lolol

 

[ayoshi]

How does Chicago contend without a 1C since Toews only scored 60pts?

Toews averages 72 points per 82 games a season. He's a 70 pts centre, who often elevates his game in the playoffs.

lol, that would certainly make things interesting
maybe add Marchessault from TB as well

though hard to see any of these scenarios add up to more than a 1st round exit at best ..and middling draft picks all the way to...?

and you forgot our fearless tough guy DD ... who i was not shocked, but appalled to see absent from this list:

When your goal is to just make the playoffs, you're doing it wrong.

I'd like to forget about Dorsett (and Sbisa) but I didn't. They are on the roster, just not in my starting lineup.

 

[Bettman Returnz]

D.Sedin - H.Sedin - Eriksson
Boedker - Horvat - Rodin
Hansen - Sutter - Virtanen

lots of speed and skill.

No baertschi?

Prediction:

Sedin Sedin Sutter
Baertschi Horvat Virtanen
Burrows Helm Hansen
Etem Granlund Dorsett
Gaunce


Edler Tanev
Hutton Gudbranson
Sbisa Larsen
Pedan Tryamkin

Helm UFA - 4 x 3.5

Sedin-Sedin-Hansen
Connolly-Sutter-Rodin
Baertschi-Horvat-Helm
Burrows-Gaunce-Dorsett
Granlund
Virtanen in Utica

Connolly 2x2.5
Helm 4x3.4

 

[jeromemorrow]

Sedin-Sedin-Hansen
Rodin-Sutter-Helm
Baertschi-Horvat-Etem
Granlund-Gaunce-Dorsett
Virtanen/Burrows in Utica

Helm 4x3.4

Took out Connolly 2x2.5 and redid your lineup abit. Chose Helm cause he takes faceoffs. Our new (RH version) of Higgins but faster.

Probably best to just sign one UFA this year imo if we don't hit the jackpot (Stamkos). Save to reload our young guns next year (Tryamkin, Hutton, Gudbranson, Horvat, and Markstrom).

Wouldn't' mind Boedker at all but not sure how we fit him in cap wise if any of the young guns break out (most likely Horvat).

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Sign Eriksson 5 years 6 million per
Sign Helm 3 years 4 million per
Sign Marchessault 2 years 1.2 million per
Trade Sbisa and Dorsett some how

Sedin-Sedin-Sedin-Eriksson
Baertschi-Horvat-Hansen
Burrows-Helm-Sutter
Gaunce-Marchessault-Virtanen
Etem/Granlund/Rodin

Edler-Tanev
Hutton-Gudbranson
Tryamkin-Larsen
Pedan/Biega

Miller
Markstrom

 

[jeromemorrow]

How about 2 years for Backes? And be done. And only minor league signings after that for depth

 

[Agent007]

So it looks like most of the roster is set now:

Sedin-Sedin-Eriksson
Bae-Sutter-Hansen
Burrows-Horvat-Rodin
Etem-Granlund-Dorsett
Gaunce/Virtanen/Some random dude

Edler-Tanev
Hutton-Guddy
Trammy-Larsen
Sbisa-Biega

Miller
Markstrom

I guess in a perfect world we move Sbisa or Pedan for a forward that left side could use a middle six winger

 

[Red]

Sedin - Sedin - Eriksson
Baertschi - Horvat - Virtanen
Rodin - Sutter - Hansen
Etem - Granlund - Burrows
Dorsett

Gaunce first call-up

Edler - Tanev
Hutton - Gudbranson
Sbisa - Tryamkin
Larssen, Biega

Pedan first call-up.

 

[Mad Brills*]

I think they're trading for a top 6 forward, but other than that it'll be the same
