Love the fact you put Demko as the #1 its his year I believe. Markstrom should be dealt at the deadline to get someone who see him as #1 or 1B for someone who can mentor Demko through the playoffs.

I agree with you. I would have traded him to the Hurricanes for picks and or minor players like Jake Bean or Morgan Geekie earlier and signed a cheaper UFA option i.e. McElhinney for less than 1.5 mil to mentor. They could have had Collin Miller from Vegas for two picks, (2021, 2022) 2 mil less and 3 yrs younger than Myers at 6 mil. and target Sam Bennett (Calgary) on a offer sheet for say around 3 mil. instead of signing Ferland. But I guess this is all speculation and easy to say isn't it, but it would have been worth a try.
