Interesting. So, in your perfect world... Lindholm is a $4.85M 3rd-line C, Backlund is a $5.35M 4th-line C, Dube is a $2.3M healthy-scratch C... because we've somehow drafted both Wright (your #1 C) and Bedard (your #2 C)?

I don't know what's worse: You calling Lindholm a 3rd-line C, you wanting to spend $10M on our 3rd and 4th line Cs, you thinking Dube shouldn't even be in the lineup or you acting like Monahan doesn't even exist.
Monahan has to remind me he exists, I guess. That way we can get a return for him now that the Eichel hope is over.

While the reality that you couldn't win back to back 1st overalls is real and something I forgot about - in that hypothetical scenario that you did somehow acquire both Wright and Bedard:

I would move Lindholm to Bedard's RW actually, and Dube to Wright's LW. It's okay to move centres to the wing if you have better centres.

Mangiapane - Bedard - Lindholm
Dube - Wright - Coleman
Pellettier - Backlund - ??

Not sure what the problem is. Looks like a rocksolid core. Even if you only get one out of the two though, and you end up hooped with a lesser pick this year

Mangiapane - Bedard - 4-7th OA pick
Dube - Lindholm - Coleman
Pellettier - Backlund - ??

Still not a bad place to be.
