DirtyDeeds Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 Have been creating cap space: Jeff Halpern claimed and now Stu Bickel. While they could be making room for someone like Iggy or Morrow from Dallas, Stu Bickel has size and would add some much needed toughness to our D, just won't score a lot of points.

Flyerfan52 Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 @ .750 until the end of 2013-14 Bickel costs us nothing but a roster spot. We could do worse for a 26 year old low pairing D. He's a hardnose but don't count on him to deliver points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manu11 Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 Wouldn't we be at the contract limit, if we claimed him? I have never seen a game of Bickel, so can only comment on his stats and what I've heard. Looking at the stats, he played only 5:31 min per game in 16 games with the Rangers and has 49 PIM. That sounds like a McGrattan on D! I would welcome the toughness he brings, he would actually clear the front of the net and pummel every guy who wants to run our goalie. I'm just not quite sure I would give our last contract for him, there might be some other interesting guys later on waivers. Maybe we could make a trade with the Rangers similar to the McGrattan trade? Or maybe they would have some interest in one of our D-men like a Sarich?
