If after these acquisitions they find that they still need to go back to the Draisailt-McDavid 30 minute top line well, then they're just the same or worse off.
What they need is for these players to allow them to play the two apart and be successful enough without each other to keep them apart.
Ryan with Draisaitl and Hyman with McDavid may facilitate that, but hard to say.
As you say, if they're actually rolling lines too then McDavid is seeing less ice time, so does the production overall even budge?
No question they're even more vulnerable on the other side of the ice too.
