I don't see Bowey as impact player in next 3-4 years. He's 3RD at maximum, probably without much PK. All his value for us is in potential, for the Ovi-era at least.
So if it's a deal-breaker for somebody very good, you have to trade him.
Vrana, on the other hand, could score some critical goal in 2 years. Just because he is cheap young winger with a good shot.
Williams news are awesome! Made my morning.
- What's your name, son?
- Hammock Miracle Worker, sir!
PS: After some games in Hershey he could be still very valuable around deadline. We can try to get our forward later. After Blues explode, for example, or Boston, which is more probable.
Imagine, trade deadline. We have Brouwer who is UFA. Some team will gladly take him, I suppose. Boom! We can trade futures for Eriksson, for to say. Meanwhile, Brouwer can take some grinder work from Williams in the regular season. Sounds like a plan, right?
