Get real? First, roughly a third of the names aren’t going to be on the roster, so we can focus on the known commodities for these purposes
How is Gio’s compete level?

McCann, Tanev, Jarnkrok, Gourde, Appleton, Dunn … if you watch hockey, you should see a trend emerging. Guys who are good teammates and have good compete levels. Geez. Even the mystifying choice of that plug McDermid is for somebody at least unpleasant to play against

Clearly he steered away from the guys with high ceiling but questionable commitment (and there were plenty), and definitely from overpaid contracts

Get real? You’re better than that
