Give the kids an opportunity to work their way into the line up. Maybe some of them will be first or second liners by the end of the year. Use the draft picks to fill out the Wranglers line up, and take the extra cap room created from Toffoli, Hanafin, and maybe Vladar to give Lindholm a raise. Duclair as a throw in would be just fine…

We are also getting Kylington back this year. With Poirier and ‘Shilly’ back this year, you could argue that we may be even better on defence.

Poirier is not ready.
