side note: man, we need to get lucky with an Eric Staal type UFA signing... guy has found the fountain of youth in minny
Generally I think there has been more focus on skill. Even the dmen they have drafted have been skilled - Fox, Vallimaki, Kylington, Andersson are all skill guys. I agree though they need to re-stock the forward group.
But it also seem quite obvious that based on the organizational blueline strength that the best opportunity to address the most pressing need is by trading from that group for a skilled RW. And I think that's a deal they will find in the summer.
