I just don’t see Demidov outside the top 3, but if it happens, oh boy…

Harris-Requires Waivers
Struble - has 16 games left i think?
The rest of our young guys have versatility and year or close in Waiver Exempt games left.
With 2 pending UFA's you got on RD that you have to play a ton before the TDL to get full value Harris and Struble are obstacles for too many
Remove them the system runs its course naturally , But trying to keep those two the only real way for our D to get minutes is if Matheson leaves at the TDL too.

Too many overachieving Dmen
All Hughes guys over achieved within months of being drafted
While MB guys took a few years longer but are coming up strong
Struble and Harris was 2 of MB success's but sadly they took too long and Matheson cemented himself here


Too many good LD and RD coming in the next 1-2 years or are already here playing in Laval

Why Armia. Has really turned it on
