I mean are your lines better than this season, yes. But is the difference enough to take the team to the next level? Therein lies the question.

Dube was a beast in the POs though. And maybe if you switch Monahan and Lindholm’s primary positions it works better.
The thing is, you are not getting Eichel without one of Lindholm, Tkachuk or maybe Gaudreau going the other way.
