Sullivan gots to go!
And honestly? There were still times I missed Reaves.
Guentzel cannot be our #3C when healthy - he just can't. At least not this season. Maybe if the plan was to keep him there for a full year to let him learn it, maybe that would work. But in the small sample size, what we've seen is that he's better then Rowney, but that's about it.
Yeah well the options might end up being Dea, Rowney or Guentzel. I doubt it, because JR usually makes a move but it sure seems to me teams are not cooperating with JR this year and want to see him overpay for mediocrity. I think that is the reality of the situation right now. Call it collusion against the champs, but it does seem like nobody wants us to get better. Well, maybe everybody except Mr. Holland in Motown. Maybe we should call him again???
As for Guentzel, we also have to remember his wingers when he was playing center...Sheary and Kessel. It was a line designed for all offense, all the time. Guentzel is definitely not ready for that, even I can admit that.
But why not give him a responsible winger to play with, maybe two?
Why not try him in between the Swedes? Or why not try Rust and Kessel?
I just think the experiment died too quickly.
At this point, we may have to hope that Dea is for real. Because he might be the best option.
