Description
Pfft... why not.
If I had dynamite, this is how I'd blow it up...
Connor Bedard could be the next big generational player (a la Matthews, McDavid, etc); maybe too soon to tell, but if you're going to blow it up, why not go all-in for a 2023 draft-eligible player that could change the course of your teams' history?

I can settle with a bad team for two years in order to actually be competitive in a few years down the road. By 2023, should CGY be afforded the opportunity to snatch Bedard, Zary, Pelletier, and Kuznetsov could be ready to play. Also, Dustin Wolf could be ready to take the back-up role and learn from Markstrom in his last few years.

    That 2023 CLB pick shouldn't be for sale.

    I wouldn't be shocked to see them tank for Bedard

    Putting aside that OTT DECLINES ... you should shave $1.25 M from that Dzingel salary and ADD IT to Batherson's.

    Top-5 protection on that Jackets pick would be necessary, Even then I'm uncertain, because I don't think Monahan actually solves our C issues - we need someone defensively minded who can shield Roz/Tex/Domi/etc. and want him to also be a playmaker who can potentially feed Laine, and Monahan is neither of these things.
