UFA Update: #Oilers are perusing the market for right-shot D, including Justin Schultz, Tyson Barrie and Kevin Shattenkirk, among others.
|
Shattenkirk played 61 games, so missed a quarter of the games to either injury or healthy scratches. He also only played in 6 of 13 playoff games, so when chips were down, he was eating popcorn. His -2 tied some guy named Mason Lohrei for worst among defencemen on the Bruins.
Schultz played 70 games, was team worst -23. For anyone counting, that's -18 worse than the next closest defenceman. Bad team, but relative to his peers, he was getting eaten alive.
Barrie only played in 41 games, and only 1 of 6 in post-season. Despite only playing in half the games, he was the worst +/- on Nashville at -10. Next closest dman was Lauzon at -3.
On its own, +/- isn't a great stat, but looked at on relative basis comparing teammates, it tells a lot of the story. Either these guys were very unlucky last year, or they were very defensively suspect. I suspect the latter...
I probably would go with what we've got rather than add one of them, although if at league minimum so that it could get buried in the minors, I suppose it would be low risk.

Very slim pickings. We know what Barrie was, not good enough for 5v5 against decent competition, and he's older now and seems to have fallen off a bit. Strange how bad his season was in Nashville. I wouldn't want that performance here though.
Schultz seems really beat down by injuries. Wouldn't risk it.
Shattenkirk maybe the best of these, but not saying much. Toss the man a PTO!
Real fix probably has to come mid-season. Gotta see if a team struggles and you can shake a decent RHD loose.
