If Ceci is your #2 on the 1st line, it's safe to say the defense is in trouble.

So Carolina is under the cap if they have zero spare players. They are going to have to get rid of salary, they aren't getting a 2nd + for a bottom pair defenceman they can't afford. I'd wager someone could get the currently injured TVR for a 4th at this point. Its honestly astonishing to see so many teams in such a poor spot financially right now.

In a perfect world we can run Reilly-Barrie but I am not sure if they would be able to stop a strong Cycle.
Running Rielly-Ceci and Muzzin-Barrie gives us 1 guy on each pair who can pass/skate and 1 who can get down low and stop the cycle. Just hope it works out that way.

I swapped Harpur for Sandin and moved up TVR, the price I paid is high but I didn't want to argue value.
All in all I don't think we will get Marner that cheap
