On D I think they could explore trading one of the LD in the offseason depending on the Kylington situation.

What player that is under 30 and is signed for 4+ years on a deal that is consider team friendly or at least a contract that we are comfortable adding is really available? Almost all teams keep these players unless the team is in about to go into a long rebuild.
Considering this draft is the best draft in many years I just don't see many teams lining up to start a rebuild after this season. St Louis looks like a team that could be going in that direction, but we aren't getting Thomas or Kyrou. It's guys like O'Rielly that are available.
Treliving more than likely will need to look at players who are RFAs or a player like Horvat who is willing to re-sign. If he can't get that he should probably just let the kids fill the spots or a buy low player. I don't mind the Gurianov pick up.
