<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NMAvsFan</b></div><div>There is plenty of room for an inexpensive rookie that can score and make plays; even if he ends up playing wing, they have a spot for him no problem. I see him having a far better shot at the NHL than Olausson. And if he looks like a legit 3C option, you trade Colton to make more room to re-sign Georgie or add elsewhere.

I wouldn't want to trust a rookie G with the Cup window; it can take a long time for goalies to fully develop.

Let's tap the brakes on Kovy being a $4.5M player; dude hasn't even played a game of NA hockey yet. We'll see where he is after next season but he'll still be an RFA so no need to project throwing a ton of cash his way just yet.</div></div>

Now we're repeating the Byram situation, playing a guy out of position to force him into the starting lineup. It's not setting him up for success. Plus Jost &amp; Newhook proved a rookie skill guy doesn't work as 3C for Bednar. Only Captain returning would force major cap moves like what you're suggesting, as CMac would be in scramble mode.

By this time, Levi would have three pro seasons. I could see him in a Georgiev role &amp; looking to flourish outside of BUF. His backup could be whoever, but its possible Prosvetov figures it out &amp; becomes a solid NHL player.

As for NK51, I'm super high on him. You don't have to shelter Nik; he's proved his versatility &amp; effectiveness at the pro level as an All Situations guy. He's Torpedo's Val Nichushkin. As opposed to Ritchie, you find an excuse to fit Nik into the lineup. If Igor Larionov says he's a top six guy in COL, I believe that.
