Off Topic to the Draisaitl thread but they need a top 4 RH dman and I think they become much closer to being a threat.
With Stamkos and Marchessault they have a deep forward group now. They have Josi as an elite dman, and Skjei as a good second pairing but both are LH. If they could improve on Carrier, Schenn, and Fabbro on their RH side then they have a good d-core too.
They have 3 2025 1sts, 2 2025 2nds, and a decent prospect pool (Tomasino, Parssinen, Molendyk, Wood, Surin, Stiga, Svechkov, L'Heureux, Kemmell, Afanasyev) that they hypothetically could package to try to get a top 4 dman.
If I was Barry Trotz I'd be calling the Flames frequently about Weegar or Andersson.
