I tend to agree. If we aren't trading for a D, we could easily fill and LHD and a RHD via UFA. Then we could trade the 1st(s) and players for a top line upgrade. But I'm sorry, ASP and MBN are not on my table. They are our near future. Wallinder and Buium I am ok with using in a package. Along with Berggren, Rasmussen, Tarasenko, Holl, Mrazek, Compher, etc... Lindgren 5x$6M Ekblad 5x$8M those two signings would make our D better, harder to play against, and Lindgren is a penalty kill specialist. Plus it will make our future team better. This year: Edvinsson - Seider Lindgren - Ekblad Chiarot - Johansson Gustafsson Next Year: Edvinsson - Seider Lindgren - Ekblad Johansson - ASP (random 7th D) I buy out Holl and Tarasenko before June 30, just cut ties, no need to attempt to trade, nobody wants to give anything for them.

Yeah this draft legit sucks. At 13th, all the Dmen seem like riskier project players, and the forwards project out like middle 6 guys. Dobson would be a huge add. I'd send NYI the 13th + Ras (making cap space) and a D prospect like Buium or Wallinder. Dobson is rumored asking for 11m per, but he wont get that IMO under RFA control. I'd try to get him under a contract that matches Seider's. $8.55 x 8. Would expire when he's 33 yo. That leaves us with roughly $15m to sign Ajo, Soder, and Berggren + UFAs (including Kane). Could go out and still sign an impact forward with that amount of money.
