Florida Panthers: Glorious opportunity arising for youngster Ian McCoshen

A notable vacancy has been left on the Panthers’ blue line, thus implying that Ian McCoshen’s extreme possibility of cracking the opening night lineup is soaring through the roof.

Ian is currently placed higher in the Cats’ depth chart compared to former 7th rounder Mackenzie Weegar, who’ll most likely begin the season as the team’s 7th d-man (or in Springfield playing high-end minutes).

Dale Tallon saw the opportunity of tremendously improving the defensive pairings by ultimately completing the Demers exchange with business-friendly Arizona. Ian McCoshen is younger, inexpensive, contains greater upside/potential and has essentially proven himself as a tremendous defensive defenseman throughout his playing career in Boston College University and the AHL.
