I'm starting to think that the only trade that I want to see in the forward ranks is one that sends Ritchie out to a team that needs some toughness. I'm much more comfortable having Phillips or Gawdin as the 14th forward (after Richardson), than Ritchie.
On defense I understand the want for depth, but it's going to be a guy that understands that he is here as a high end injury replacement for the playoffs. I actually think that Mackie can stand in for either of the bottom four LD right now and play well. Valimaki a bit of a wildcard, just due to age and experience. Stone is steady on the RD. I'm not worried if nothing happens.
Tre did all of his work early.
I do however expect a very busy off-season.
