I'm hoping they steer clear of Marner, more wingers isn't what this team needs. Not sure there's anything center wise in free agency that could be considered elite. I love Bennett, but he's more second line centre. Although his physicality and compete levels would be welcome for sure. I like Gavrikov too, nothing wrong with a big physical dman - even if he's older than Rasmus.
Not sure free agency is the way to go to build what we need, it doesn't seem to ever work for any teams that I recall. The draft and trades seem the best way, and I like our recent drafting record, but it takes time. Gotta hope Connie has some trade magic up his sleeves!
