Idk what to make of Guhle to be honest, but that trade def depends on what tracey becomes.That’s dumb, then. Montour is already a top 4 D. I’d say he has a 95% chance of having the better career. It will only become a good trade if Tracey pans into a solid NHL player’s
Guhle has some top notch skills, but overall he lacks the right mind for a defender.... I thought him and fowler did good together when line up was healthy... getting the ozone starts and being put in a position where they can both rely on their skating abilities to keep puck out of our zone. Any other situation... guhle becomes a bit suspect.... and sometimes he doesnt seem to know what to do when he has the puck in the o zone and going in with speed.
Montour kinda had the opposite, where he knew where he was going with the puck when he got it, and it was the O zone... trying to score/get a shot off. I thought he defensive game got better over time... I really still confused why we moved him... unless it was just Old school Bob moving him because of contract negotiations.
