He obviously is no where near what he once was. But, he can still contribute. Still has size, and is good in the face off circle, which is still a huge area of concern that gets next to no attention. Brings leadership, would be a good voice in the locker room.

 

In the event the Rangers maybe deal Strome and give Chytil a try at 2C, Getzlaf can slide in nicely as a 3C. He obviously likely isn’t looking for anything super long term given his age (I’m thinking maybe 2 years) and given where he is at in his career, not likely to be a cap-breaker. I think there is a chance he can play a role on this team at this stage of his career if the dollars are right. It makes more sense to have him as a 3C than either Chytil or Strome, and our dilemma right now is that one of the 2 currently are slated for 3C duty. I think Getzlaf is more suited to fill that role.

Panarin-Chytil-Kravtsov

Kreider-Getzlaf-Goodrow

Barron-Rooney-Blais

 

Thoughts?

Not sure he's on their radar, or the other way around.

I've been asking for Getzlaf for a while, Richie...I didn't think we could pry him from the west coast though...I think he'd be a good 3C for a couple of seasons.
