Lekhonen will do the dirty work on a line with KK & Toffoli - who historically feeds better of Lhanded C than Rhanded ones.I have no problem with the Perry and Frolik signings. I just think we have 5 guys who are similar in talent level to fill the 4th line wing spots (Byron, Armia, Lehkonen, Perry, and Frolik). I would have rather we spent more cap space on a better top 9 winger to play with KK and Toffoli/Anderson, and had 2 or 3 guys for the 4th line wing spots.
But hopefully one of these guys can emerge as a good fit with KK and Toffoli/Anderson. On paper I think it's Armia or Frolik...
Anderson will complement Drouin-Suzuki duo to perfection IMO - the rare W asset who can provide physical thrust without compromising pace.
I disagree with comment “we have 5 guys who are similar in talent level to fill the 4th line wing spots”, Byron brings a speed quotient Armia, Perry and Frolik do not. Also as mentioned prior I expect Lekhonen will be 3rd line LW
