I think that Gio could be the same type of mentor for a younger player. I'd start with :

Hanifin - Andersson
Giordano - Kylington
Valimaki - Tanev
Nestorov (get back in the flow of the NHL)
I dont see any way Kylington is a regular on the ice, never mind getting 2nd pairing minutes, and they didnt sign Tanev to get 3rd pairing minutes...if that happens something has gone dreadfully wrong.
