I'd do it at that price, but...

The idea of staying pat and giving Tolvanen/Tomasino (maybe even Pitlick) a shot is definitely growing on me. Signing Hoffman would definitely hurt that chance - and if they sign Hoffman + bring up Tolvanen, then that could potentially force Trenin out of the lineup. And I really think Trenin deserves to be on this starting roster.

Although, without an established top 6 forward there will be growing pains, and this team is more likely to miss the playoffs - and in Rinne's last year, I'd at least like to be competitive for his sake.

So I'm on the fence I guess -- at the start of free agency I wanted Hoffman, but now I would be OK just giving some more ice time to the younger players and seeing what they can do.

i see no issue with stacking the roster. Take COusins or Richardson out of the lineup if you have to , to put Tolvanen

That's what I would do, but I don't think Poile signed either of them to be the 13th forward. He said he anticipates his 3 new guys (Kunin, Cousins, Richardson) to play on 3 different lines next season -- so if anyone gets pushed out, I think it'd be Trenin unfortunately, and I don't want to see that.

There's another possible solution, as long as Poile gives Tomasino the same patient treatment he has Tolvanen. Might be unpopular, but trade Jarnkrok for a pick. If the new guys have to be on different lines, then slide Grimaldi down, and make the 3rd line Tolvanen-Sissons-Cousins. I see Pitlick being the 13th forward given the 2-way QO he signed. Either way, I see a lot of low scoring, defensive games in the near future.
