It would be fantastic to get an upgrade on RW like a Nylander but we will still be ok with the guys we have. I definitely wouldn't say it's a giant hole.

I want Dube to play Centre next season, he seems to have another gear when playing there and long term it would be awesome if he turned into a solid second line centre.
I fully expect Shaggy to play RW and think it will go well. I am really hopeful that they have something with him.
Mangiapane had a horrible season last year so I really don't want to judge too much but he struggled and appears to play better on his natural side. Coleman is solid but is more of a checking/defensive specialist who eats hard minutes. Duehr shares much of this and his peak should resemble Coleman's.
If you look at things this way then RW is our weakest position. LW is stacked, centre is very solid, defence is as strong as ever and goaltending could go either way(Markstrom).
We need to deal from a position of strength to fill in the weaknesses. One true top 6 RWer would be a great add and help with not throwing Coronato to the wolves in his first few seasons. I would also prefer that he gets some time in the A personally (scared that he may be rushed).
