Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

If I am Sweeney and Neely, this is what I am doing.

Hyman and Coleman address the softness of the forward group. Personally a huge fan of Lauko, might have another year in providence, but I kind of feel like he will force his way onto the team. Speed, toughness, PK and he can score.

Hyman has proven he can play with elite talent. He is very fast and good in corners, Let Pastrnak play on the second line because Hall and Krejci need someone who can score. Both are more playmakers.

The only time Coyle was decent this year was with Smith. I think a line of Coleman Coyle and Smith will be a pain in the arse to play against.

4th line - Physical and fast. Let studnicka spot in as needed.

Defense is pretty simple. Add Graves and slot Lauzon down. They will bring back Miller, it's what they do. He is also BFF with Marchand, so there is also that. When he plays, he is a 2nd pairing caliber player. I am convinced, he will never make a full or even close to a full season again. Seems like the type of dude who would get struck by lightening multiple times.

Clifton as the 7th when Miller gets hurt. Vaak as the 8th when someone on the left side gets hurt. Would be opposed to bringing back Rielly as long as it's as 3rd pairing. Lauzon can play right. OR if Lauzon is taken by Seattle.

Goalie - Sign any vet around 2-2.5m let the Boston Structure and D make him look good and deal at deadline/when Rask is back. it's a platoon. I fully expect it to be Swayman's job by the end of the year. Rask back on cheap money backing up swayman is perfect. As much hate as Rask gets, you are doing pretty ok if Rask is your contingency plan.
He kind of has to be ok with it if he want to play at all.
