What's JBB's plan?
I'm not the most knowledgeable on our recent players, but notable Viel and Mikheyev, why are we signing more ~30 bottom 9 forwards?
We have plenty of young players coming up into the system so there'd already be fighting for a roster spot.
Also, we have players like Kucherov, D'Astous, Holmburg, and James that will need contracts soon. Unless Mikeyev ends up becoming the 2RW we needed and Viel takes big steps, I think we'd just have a log jam in our bottom 6 and end up having to move on from our younger talent.
Sorry if I sound uninformed but I'm honest;y just confused on JBB's judgement here.
