I think they are going to have trouble winning the tight games. We have Boyd McArdle Jones Svennson Holzapfel but no player that can actually play on the top line with Boyd and McArdle if Brouwer doens't come back. We need a gritty workhorse that just wants to win no matter what. We are missing that even if Brouwer returns as a 20. Lepp is not the go to guy we need. Time to let Perricone have a shot now. Kaczmar will be an admirable backup in the Whl. He has shown he at least deserves a shot for sure. Huston and Jebson are the future down the road. If Perricone doesn't handle the load this season that future may be sooner than though. Huston will be ready next season and Jebson isn't far behind if at all. Our D next year will be stronger than this season. Our offense next season will take a bit of a hit. Likely losing both Boyd and Jones and that will be tough to replace no matter what. We are kind of in a crossroads of sorts. I don't want to see them try to take a run but rather set themselves up for the long haul. The next 2 or 3 seasons could really be something to watch if we can deal some players and set ourselves up with some quality youth to add to our already great youth.
