What's so "bad" about it?
You have there:
- Three 20-25 minute per night core defensemen to build the D around
- Monahan, Bennett, Backlund down the middle
- Gaudreau, Brouwer, Frolik to pair with those legit centers
- What should be solid goaltending
2017/18 CORE
Gaudreau - Monahan - ???????
????????? - Bennett - Brouwer
????????? - Backlund - Frolik
L Bouma - M Stajan - ????????
Giordano - Brodie
????????? - Hamilton
????????? - ?????????
Elliot
Gillies
That's an awesome core to build around and a team that is built the right way.
Strong goaltending
Strong top end D
Strong down the middle
Should be no problem filling out that roster properly, even with Stajan/Bouma eating up $5 + million as the 4th line "pairing".
