We need to lockdown a face off guy through draft or trade!
I know everyone wants to get the superstar winger for Bedards line or a top defenceman. We have a lot of centers and I am perfectly fine with having guys like Frondel and Nazar on the wing but we NEED A FACE OFF SPECIALIST. We were 31st in the league in face offs this season. Players with over 100 face offs taken our two best were Dickinson and Foligno. Watching these world championships I want Viggo Bjorck even more. Great center. Dominated face offs during the Canada game. First line center and playing over Frondel who has been a healthy scratch. People say his size but both Stenberg and him play tough for their size. If we can’t get Stenberg or Bjorck go all in for a trade for Hischier. He’s not happy in NJ and contract ends after next season. Doesn’t matter how good a defence we get if we consistently lose d zone face offs and constantly getting trapped. Thought?
