Has all the physical traits you'd want in a defensman he just doesn't have it between the ears. If he can get the brain to match up with the skills he could be a good player. Also needs to use his size more. Should be a good signing though cause I that price you can't go wrong, he's NHL quality just not great quality yet.

This one feels like good news. We're better than most teams with reclamation projects.

Saw a lot of Bolts fans mentioning him since he wasn't qualified on Twitter. Great signing, low cost, low risk.

Thoughts on Fleury? I think he was alright actually. With Serg missing and CDH crapping the bed he kinda held his own on the left side beyond Hedman.

I also think we kinda missed him in the playoffs (same for Raddysh).

If Lilleberg needs another year in the AHL, sign him. I think it's better than taking risks with another vet like De Haan.

He should get League minimum on a one-year deal or JBB should tell him bye . So based on the JBB extension trends he will probably get a raise worth at a few million more than he is worth to motivate him to play better.

Honestly i'd resign him for 1-3 years. We still need cost controlled minutes and he actually did fairly well despite my constant complaining about him. Losing him was a much bigger hole than I expected.

He looked solid when he wasn’t injured. Good skater, fairly big and decently physical, can skate the puck out and doesn’t make terrible decisions.
I’d definitely resign him if available for around 1 mil.

Yeah theres nothing about his game that blows you away but he seems to kinda get things done?

Two year extension at 2.655 million incoming

He is an ideal 6/7 defenseman near league minimum. Not great, not terrible, barely noticeable, doesn't hurt you , doesn't really help you, but has some size.

The speed/size/positioning taken as a combo does kinda blow me away, you can see the specimen that made him a top draft pick.

Everyone loves Lilleberg, but before him this is the guy I was really hoping would turn the corner and be our bottom pair LHD. He did kinda and then got injured, tough break
