Would be a great Kuhnhackl replacement for the Penguins. Would certainly help them regain an offensive scoring touch for the 4th line.
Duclair-Sheahan-Rust/ZAR/Sprong
would be nice.
Great assessment. That Duclair-Sheahan--Rust line would be very strong 4th line
I would be a little worried putting 2 players with very little experience with Brassard though. Because I would not touch the top 2 lines from last season and thought the 3rd line would be Rust-Brassard-Sprong. Putting your 4th line together means ZAR to the 3rd line LW instead which of course he could do well talent wise just don't know if I would like two players with that experience level on the same line even though both have talent. Also don't see Sullivan not playing Cullen in the lineup so if this deal does get done I see another move most likely. Although I like that 4th line and all lines would be stacked although that 4th line could very easily be as good or better than the 3rd line. More upside in the 3rd line if Sprong has a Guentzel like rookie season and ZAR establishes himself as a top 9 forward which he showed at times last season. Cullen as 13th forward is great depth but can't see him not in the lineup on a 4th line. If this signing happens it will be very interesting what happens next.
