Great dream my friend.
Signing Johnson is the highest priority, but put him on the left side and resign Lyubushkin.
When the Penguins traded for Kessel, many thought he would skate next to Crosby or Malkin.
Instead he was put on the third line to create additional offense.
It would take great courage to break up 53-72-89.
Anderson may be the ticket, but Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen made 39 saves last night, he may just share the load with Levi initially.
Foligno is probably best suited for fourth line duty at this stage in his career and move up Kulich to play with Krebs and Kane.
Maybe not, I do not that to be called the KKK line.

How are you planning to resign Peterka and Quinn with cap space used on Mittelstadt, Foligno.

Good question. Trade Jokiharju, buyout Skinner, Anderson contract expires. Cap goes up.

Some combination of those.

Anderson is 1 mil. Skinner is 1 ppg player, he is only 30 so I doubt he will regress that much in 2 years that 6 mil dead cap space would better than him.

AndersEn is 4 million. And Skinner is currently on a hot streak but his contract is still very bad.

Fredrick Andersen vs Craig Anderson - my bad.

Skinner contract is not very bad as of late. Don't know what future brings, but buying him out in 2025 is 4 mil dead cap then and 6mil next year. He will have to really fall of the clif with his production to make that worthy
