Famous Seamus the RD slash LD slash C

Description
Seamus Casey has not made a decision yet whether he will return to college or turn pro. But I doubt having three RD on roster has much to do with it.

He has played three positions while at Michigan…RD, LD, C. While I don’t think he lines up at center in NHL, if he is one of our best 6 dmen, he can play off-hand. In fact, in juniors, he played mostly LD.

Why wouldn't you just play him at RW? As I recall, he's quite offensively gifted. Seems like he'd be an ideal 3RW instead of playing Palat on his off side

This is the answer. We need two shutdown D, and Casey isn't that.

Because if Gus is valued about a 2nd rounder, that's the cost difference between the two picks?

It came from a Michael Russo report that said they may be trying to use Gustavsson to move up in draft. The two teams ahead of MIN that need goalies…

13. MIN
12. PHI
11. BUF
10. NJD
9. CGY
8. SEA
7. OTT

Philly may need a goalie, but that is only one spot up. Buffalo could be an option. Devils are likely in mix. Calgary and Seattle are doubtful. Would Ottawa want him back?

I don’t know where else they would go.

We do need another veteran defensive option. But the point is that Casey is not as locked off the roster as others think.

He is an elite skater, ran the most successful power play in NCAA history, was used as defensive dman on world junior team, played LD in juniors and has even started a game as 1C for Michigan. If anyone in our system could make that switch, it’s probably him. (Although I’d put him at LW).
