Most likely, I think that they will end up with Artem Anisimov out of Ottawa, but I'm not sure if he's really that much of an upgrade on Brassard, at this point in his career.

I thought "hmmmm, Jankowski could be attractive to them...". Then I looked at their roster for a RHS RW and no one jumped out at me. I mean, yah, Barzal, but other than that, I'm surprised they've done as well as they have.
