I don’t see the need to do something now. This is a playoff team and having defensive depth during the regular season is important.
I agree with waiting...this team has been incredibly fortunate with injuries for a few years...let's get through a few months of the season and see what's missing. Give Pelletier/Ruzicka/Dubé lots of leash - the absolute best value would be getting solid contributions at their low AAVs.

That said, if you can turn something like Hanifin+Valimaki (+maybe Dubé/etc) into a top 6 F and solid middle pair D (ideally safe RHD to pair with Zadorov)...especially

Weegar-Andersson
OK-Kylington
Zadorov-_____

E.g. Beauvillier+Mayfield, Arvidsson+Walker, Mercer+Graves, etc.
