#1 Connor McMichael

Connor McMichael only played in six games this season and had nada. He averaged just 8:52 minutes of ice time. Ouch.

He’s looking forward to training camp this year for one particular reason: there will be a new coach in town. We don’t know who it is but it won’t be Peter Laviolette.

McMichael scored 16 goals and added 23 assists for 39 points in 57 regular season games for the Bears. In the playoffs he added four points in seven games with three goals and one assists, each goal being bigger than the other.

I think McMichael should be the third line center and now that Lars Eller and Laviolette are gone it’s basically his job to lose. Of course that could change if GMBM spends big this summer.

Hot. Top 3 players Capitals could draft at 8th. light

The Bears begin the Eastern Conference Finals on Tuesday night.
