i would love for rutherford to bring in two top six forwards. i just don't think it's gonna be possible, and i'd rather get one homerun than two lesser lights. in that situation you have to put beau in the top six. dupuis-sutter-bennett would be a great third line. i don't think dupuis-sutter-downie/comeau is THAT much of a downgrade.
as long as we're bringing in at least one guy, this is a can't lose situation
on another note... i might give sutter kunitz quicker than bennett. unless we ditch kunitz at some point that third line is going to be kunitz-sutter-dupuis, i'd have to assume. maybe as soon as a year
If you don't give Sutter BB, then you'd better give him Comeau. I can't imagine a bigger possession black hole than Kunitz/Sutter/Dupuis. I don't know if I can watch 11m worth of dudes who can't pass the puck to one another.
I don't know what you do with Kunitz if his skills degrade any further and he gets any lazier. He won't be an effective bottom sixer with his only redeeming skill being an above average wrist shot. You just hope he turns it up in the playoffs I guess.
