So when are we going to see it this year?

When's the swap going to take place?

When will Gooley swap spots with Mike Matheson with a little bit of change in the ice time as well?

Matheson can still play on the penalty kill and Gouley should be there too.

And he'll get his minutes that way.

But I think that it's not going to happen as quickly.

But there's going to be a changing of the guard on defense as well.

And I think also, you know, Struble seems to be the odd man out this year.

It was pretty clear that Adam Engstrom had bypassed him on the depth chart.

He's back in Lavelle now because it's convenient.

But at some point, Adam Engstrom is going to be up.

At some point, maybe not this season, David Reinbacker is going to be ready.

So there's going to be some change there.

And those are going to be very difficult decisions for management and the coaching staff as well.

So that leaves an opportunity to add.

Do the Canadians have something in the works?

We've heard from Pierre Lebrun that they've been kind of making their calls and doing their due diligence.

When Hughes was asked, what do you need?

His answer was simple, lots.

He mentioned skill.
