Ham on Wheels 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2009 I wouldn't, not chance in Hell. Bouwmeester is a great D-man and can put the puck in the net. Our problem was not defense this season our problem was just being tired and beat up and just didn't have the fire we had last season. No reason to be making hasty big changes just becasue we lost the Cup. Remember we made it to the Finals and 7 Games. If our problem was on defense we would have been out in the first round. Just because there isn't a problem, doesn't mean that you shouldn't try to make your team better. Last year we won and then we signed Hossa. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FedorovMan91 1 Report post Posted June 14, 2009 I don't see us we get JB this off-season or soon because Kenny will never trade Kronwall. I think we have to see next season and decide how genuinely good both Stuart and Kronwall are. Also see how Ericsson can do. To answer for the young 5 D-man in the league at this point: 1.Phaneuf 2.Weber 3.Bouwmeester Except for those three, I don't see any more dominant young D men in the league.
