I want them all! I would say I like Sustr more because he has enormous potential with his size, reach and continuing development. But both him and Schmidt have 75% of the league waiting to offer them contracts and we don't necessarily offer the best opportunity for playing time now or in the next couple of years. I don't see them choosing us, unfortunately.

Laganiere could likely step in the AHL at the end of this season and help out the Wolves. He'd likely get a good chance to play a lot of minutes next season as well. He just makes sense on an organization level and based on what Gillis has been looking for. Need some more dynamic wingers beyond Kassian and Jensen. So i can see him seeing us as an attractive option.
I would love to see us take the free contract spots that Stefan Schneider and Prab Rai will be leaving and offer Laganiere and Sustr contracts. We'd be lucky to get one of the two but why not eh?
