Feels more likely to me.

As we discussed in the other thread. You can’t leave Kuz who doesn’t back check well with Necas, who also doesn’t back check well all the time and leave svech to cover their mistakes. You want Kuz to be creating opportunities for svech. Jarvis provides two way stability to a line with those two. 
 

Necas and Drury have also been clicking well. Shouldn’t separate them.

I will make a stand on this one, we will end up regretting this move. 

I do not see him fitting our style of play even remotely.

It sounds like they are trusting Justin Williams and Orlov on this one. 
 

hopefully their want to help a friend didn’t cloud out where his skill is at currently.

I just am not seeing what they are. I hope they are right but I fully expect to end up looking at this one and saying, "How the fug did we convince ourselves on this BS?"

What do we lose? Didn’t cost much. If it works then great, if not so what. Can’t be any worse than KK and if he is we play KK.

That is an honest first question though, what do we lose?

Cap space and a draft pick.

I'd rather have those if he is basically going to end up a healthy scratch for game after game.

As mdc pointed out. His salary number is probably the difference between signing Guentzel or not, if Guentzel wants to stay.

Better see him at least trying man defense and back checking today.

He did well today.
