Unfortunately I think they’re married to this group. Lindholm would be the guy I would want short of Chychrun, which I don’t think is realistic. I’m hoping for a 10 game losing streak from Anaheim
at minimum they need a 2c. has to happen. you can find a rw anywhere on the market, the 2c market is bare and so is the LD market. Hertl, strome, getzlaf, maybe jeff carter, max domi (more of a winger), those are your rental centers. right now only hertl and domi are outside the playoffs.
Left Defense is even more bare, Chiarot, lindholm, leddy, giordano, Really the only 4 guys playing over 20m a night right now. guys dekeyser, goligoski, de haan, either wouldnt be available or are more 2nd pairing vs true top pair, ide really lump leddy and chiarot into that group of 2nd pair vs top pair as well. its really lindholm, and a clearly aging giordano and thats it on the rental market.
Can they get someone with term like a jt miller, or a chychyrun... sure doubt they can afford to get both. Another "crazy" idea would be trading for suter and pavelski, might not cost all that much combined.
