A few tweaks to set up the push to get to the SC. Contrary to what everyone is saying, I would keep Goodrow but only for one more year. I have Rempe in as the 13th forward but I would bring up Edstrom whenever possible to play that 4C to get experience and eventually slot in for 25-26. The player that we need to move is Trouba. I love the physical way he plays but we can't afford him and his play has been slipping. I think that our next Captain would be Trocheck. How he played this year and how he consoled Shesterkin at the end speaks volumes. The one forward I would pursue to play on the Zibanajed line would be Kane. I would pitch him the chance to get another ring. Only one year though, as ultimately we would like to see Perreault in that spot for 25-26. If you can't get Kane, I would sweeten the Trouba deal to aquire Vatrano back for one more year. I would bridge Schneider for 2 at $3M and look to sign Lindgren for 3 at $4M. I would look to see if we could sign Pesce as a FA for 4 at $5M. I would give Othmann an opportunity to make the Team and set him up on the third line with Chytil and Kakko. I think the moves here will give us a little cap space to accumulate toward the TDL. This also sets up some flexibility to extend Shesterkin for 6 at $10.5M and Lafreniere for 8 at $7M while allowing room for both Miller and Jones extensions.
