Description

A surplus of left-handed forwards (and left-handed defensemen) suggests to me that we might make a trade for a RW or RD.

I'm pairing the rookie with our best two-way forwards, but Eakins might want to put him with Henrique and Heinen so that we have the option of an experienced center to take draws when the situation calls for it.

Cap space for the team shown is exactly $5.8 million. Potential call-ups or 9-game auditions are shown on the IR.

Only the following are exempt from the expansion draft: Zegras, Comtois, Tracey, Kindopp and Curran.

Special Note to Toronto Maple Leafs fans: Please look at this roster closely, and then stop trading us Andreas Johnsson, Alex Kerfoot or Travis Dermott.

A Manson deal doesn't work because both teams need RD. Agreed for sure.

I'd be skeptical of throwing Zegras right into the fire at 2C like that. He'll probably grow into that role over the course of the year at least, but to start I'd construct my roster around him being 3C ready so you don't have to rush him into the role - which you've done by keeping Henrique, which is smart imo.
