If you strike out on Hyman, try and acquire Jarnkrok or Arvidsson in deals involving a 2nd or multiple 2nds.

Not the wildest number of changes, but some significant ones. Gio out, Calgary outbids Boston for Hall, give Hyman an extra year and get him. Rely on a young defensive group with 0 overpaid veterans being brought in, and give Kylington PP minutes. Find a high value back-up for Markstrom as Wolf starts his pro career in Stockton while relying on the youth from Stockton to come up and play depth roles throughout the lineup. Backlund moves up the line-up when injuries strike Monahan.

Treliving pushes the future chips in hoping he’ll finally build a team worth worrying about maintaining. Ruzicka, Pelletier, Zary, Heineman and Pospisil all “on the brink” of coming up from the AHL.
