Damn...if you would have said "he's as good as those three..." i would have called you on it...well played, sir.. and probably a similar level player to Hagg, MacDonald and Manning.

If only they weren't so obsessed with "chemistry" they'd so easily be able to upgrade this defense to a far superior group.
Provorov-Ghost
Sanheim-Gudas
Oduya-Trash
But even if Hextall realizes this, Hakstol wouldn't use them, so there's no point in bringing him up. Our 3rd best defensemen remains in the AHL, wasting time.
Replacing Manning with Sanheim isn't a marginal gain. It's a huge improvement.
Sanheim is a higher tier of player and turns them from a one pair team to a two pair team. Manning is dragging down Gudas too.
Sanheim is not far superior this year, at least at this time - talent is not performance.
Maybe by April, maybe next year.
But he's not the savior right now.
And proclaiming it over and over simply doesn't make it so - this team is playing just fine without his saving grace.
Do you guys really think they would have picked Morin at 11 if they saw him topping out at 6'10'' 275 lbs? He will come in to camp next year with added muscle and a few inches. 7'1'' 300 lbs.
