I think we need to land Barzal out of this. Get super creative to make it happen, he can play a similar role to Johnny but in the middle, and with a ton of pressure off of him with Lindholm being the 1C
A three punch combo of Lindholm - Barzal - Backlund is great. We’ve always needed to be better down the middle. That’s the best center depth we’ve had since the cup winning team
A rebuild isn’t happening with Darryl and Edwards. Don’t fault anyone for wanting one, just would advise bracing the expectations there
