Hope he can be a poor man's Radar

What a trade the Duchene trade would turn out to be then! Hahaha

He's really more of a Lars Eller type... Could be anywhere from a rich to poor mans version... but big, skates well, good defensively, can play wing or center. A rich mans version is a 55 point #2C... a poor mans version is a fringe NHL player who could carve out a PK specialist role.

I have concerns over his low shot production still. He only has 7 goals on the year and yet that's still over 20% shooting because he only has 35 odd shots. Though he is getting very little PP time as well.

Part of that is how he plays and how he's in the dirty areas with the hands to lift shots... part of it is unsustainable. I'd say he's more realistically a 10-11% guy.

MacDonald should play game 82 unless we are still fighting for a playoff spot.

A mix of injuries and what not allowed the opportunity to give Duncan Siemens a nice little "sendoff", hopefully something can be arranged for MacDonald. Of course, he's a huge reason why the Eagles are successful this season, so I don't know if they want to give that up.

I have not checked the 2 schedules but maybe there is a way that he plays for the Avs and not miss a beat with the Eagles. Also if both teams have locked a playoff birth by then it will not be a problem.

Little extra $$$ in the paycheck, to say thanks for helping the Eagles succeed. Just a game, but it would make a difference to him.

If we did trade and and sign JGP, what happens of Bowers fate?
He seems fine at wing. If we somehow solve our 3C issue another way he'll still be a useful bottom sixer.

That said though, I think the odds of getting JGP are only slightly better than our odds of getting Ovechkin. He'll stay in Ottawa.
