They are building through the draft. The guys they're signing now are placeholders. There is no big contracts being given-out.
The Santorelli/Winnik 1 year deals last season worked out brilliantly. Both played well and fetched big returns at the deadline (And Winnik returned to the Leafs).
If Mathias plays well, he'll be traded at the deadline.
Abnd they hardly threw away Kessel. they got a first Rounder+ a nice prospect in Kapanen.
