My LD rankings...some explanations:

I would love to see either Gryz, Sandin, or Sanheim be blues. Not sure if the bruins will still be interested in dealing him since the band is getting back together, but if he's out there, go get him. Same deal with Sandin, and Sanheim is the preferred candidate between the two flyers Ld due to contract and underlying numbers.

The next tier, the solid to meh options: Cole, Perunovich, and Pettersson could all be ideal 2nd D pairing guys for us, if we wanted to put Krug back with Parayko, which has worked well in the past. Cole and Pettersson would probably be nice due to their defensive upside, but don't sleep on Scotty P. Rounding out this tier we have the FAs such as Zadorov and Kulak, both of which would be solid, but only for the right price. Zadorov shouldn't be a blue if he wants 4/4m, not sure what Kulak wants, but if its around 3m I wouldn't be against it

The final tier is the players I wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole. Scandella ironically is probably the most preferable out of the big 3, (ignore rosen), as Leddy probably wants 4m+ and Chiarot is a disaster waiting to happen. I would be extremely disappointed if either free agent is a blue next year, they would be hurting the team more than helping.

That all said, I feel like Army is brewing something, maybe he's cooking up a Sandin trade, as we haven't heard much about that at all, ala the Buchnevich trade last year (and btw, he would be a buchnevich like pickup,)
