I think Thompson is gonna be a guy that's bouncing between the NHL and AHL next year so I don't think we need to worry about finding a spot for him in the NHL just yet. Our lineup also doesn't have any real bonafides so I'm sure there's gonna be a ton of rotation on who gets scratched from game to game. So I'd bet we carry 8 dmen and you'll see Vlasic, Benning, Burroughs, Addison, Emberson, Thrun, Rutta, and Muk get their fair share of scratches.
There's a strong possibility of Benning and Burroughs heading to the AHL too. In a lot of ways, Benning is one of our better defensemen but he's been out for the whole season with a hip injury and is slow and will probably be slowing down even further.
Ideally, we just bring in a legit defense pairing and not have to worry about this.
