The Ducks would have to leave one of Fowler, Lindholm, Vatanen or Depres exposed

The Bolts would have to leave one of Hedman, Stralman, Garrison or Sustr exposed

Take the worst guy off all those lists and you have a pretty good top 4 defense, and that's just off the top of my head, and not even digging into forwards.

De Haan - Ellis
Depres - Sustr

I'd take that as a rebuilding defense any day.

Interesting points. I think a Nashville might need to make a hard decision on Weber there.
