I wanna see them trade Killorn or Palat and replace that cap with 3-4 solid depth players. The equivalent of what Toronto did with Bunting, Ritchie, Kampf and Kase

18-21-86
17-71-91
60-79-7
14-41-94
Keep the tip 6 as is make a triplets part duex and the we're going to grind you down vet line

Toronto isn't back to back Stanley Cup champions doing that would be foolish

I know. But you lost a lot of depth. Would be good to do that and then acquire another guy in Miles Wood at the deadline .

I couldn't disagree more. This organization has the depth and Joseph Colton 1 OF ABB OR KATCHOUK OR RADDYSCH could be really good line

I really wanna see guys like Demelo, Wood, Brassard come in. That would help in an easy three peat

Doing that puts this team in Chicago situation letting the. Kids play and I believe they can puts them in just as good of shape to and doesn't mortgage the future.
In Al Murray and Benoit Groulx we trust

Palat-Point-Kucherov
Killorn-Cirelli-Stamkos
Joseph-Colton-Perry
Maroon-Bellemare-ABB

Hedman-Foote
McDonagh-Cernak
Sergachev-Rutta

I’d probably go

Palat-Point-Kucherov
Killorn-Cirelli-Stamkos
ABB-Colton-Joseph
Maroon-Bellemare-Perry

Would be cool to have a kids line and a vets line. Keeps the lethal top 6 intact. Realistically they probably go with something like

Palat-Point-Kucherov
Stamkos-Cirelli-Joseph
Killorn-Colton-Perry
Maroon-Bellemare-ABB

Which is a more balanced lineup (still with the elite 1st line), and I think Joseph could be really good if given a chance higher in the lineup.

ABB on 4th line would be mistake imo. Play him with some guys that can play offense or don't play him at all. Katchouk/Raddysh would make more sense with Maroon and Bellemare.

No way their going to split Cirelli and Killorn if they're both here and healthy think you're first is what they do

ABB is interesting case .. I only see his fit really on 1st line. If they DONT trade Palat and don't give ABB 1st line reps.. I am not sure he plays this year much .. kind of like Joseph who failed in top 6 .. getting Perry and Bellaire was HUGE .. back 6 now 3 vets vets 3 "newbies" ..
