Okay, but Larsson was the RHD who was a defensive d-man, so not sure what Bear has to do with that
Well he has showed that he could take
1 st pair minutes at his best, instead we add 2 big ? to our D corp!
We have a better defence now then we did last season. The last 2 seasons we had Smith/Koskinen in net and they got us to 2nd place in our division each season while having a GAA under 3. Larsson was good this last season but he was a non factor the year before yet we finished 2nd both years. As much as I’d like a stud RD and a more reliable goalie then Koskinen I think we’ll be fine this coming season with the current lineup.
To late to find a starter! Thinking Smith is enoygh to hold on for a 82 season when he has played 30 games the last couple of seasons!
Find a replacer for Koskinen is easier, but dont expect a upgrade! In that spectrum of backups out there, it a big mess and you has to be very lucky finding a decent backup!
16/17 was our best season with Klef/lars beasting and Talbot !
We havent 1 defensiveminded D who can play Pk and defend at a high level at Rh, thats scary!
We have added 2 D who cant handle topminutes anymore, thats the reality!
2 RhD who needs Sheltered minutes, poor Nurse, needs to play 45 minutes a game!
