I like the look of the team, I just don't think we have enough cap room to sign Tanev, just judging on the cap staying flat for a couple years and Ovi, Vrana and Sammy have to get signed next offseason. Also, I don't think Leason is ready for the NHL. Played a limited role with Hershey in 19-20, but he'll get more chances and ice time with them next season (if it ever happens), and we'll see how he progresses offensively.

Neither McMichael or Leason are NHL ready. I agree we desperately need a RHD, but doubtful we will have enough space to sign a real top 4 RHD, while adding forward depth, which has been reported as a goal as well

I think McMichael might surprise you. Also, Protas and Alexeyev are playing in the KHL this year, and doing okay, so they might be ready, if the team can open up roster spots.
