Didn't Lindenning say Horvat would most likely play on the wing?
A week or so ago, dunno could be wrong....
I didn't see that, plus we got way to many wingers as it is, BoHo staying center.

I will be surprised if both of Higgins and Hansen are on the team come October. I would like to see Higgins traded, and it strikes me that he is the kind of player that Benning will move out as he just doesn't seem to have that second gear or consistency. I also think that one of Mathias or Kassian or Jensen can replace his production.
Nah, Hansen is the odd man out now with Kassian and Jensen rising up the ranks.
Higgins at least can score and pass (40pts a season), a superb vet 3rd liner with ability to step up to 2nd line for spot duty when/if injuries occur, honeybadger on the other hand can be really frustrating to watch with his lack of scoring ability, he's now redundant and overpaid, on a stacked Cup team he'd be perfect for the 4th line RW spot, too bad he's making $2.5M per.
A long time ago, a baseball player remarked: "If I owned a ballclub, I'd hire a $5,000 coach and a $15,000 scout."
