Description
there just isn't a lot of cap space.
Bringing in two guys with a little more push to them. Let the youth play because they can't afford to bring anyone else in who isn't basically league min and the market is pretty poor.

    cap space and size have to come from somewhere. We can't keep everyone and then sit around and wonder why we get the same results.
    Realistically there just isn't a lot of space on this team to move. 5/6 of the top 6 should stay. McCann are Carter are the only 3rd liners we have and Carter probably isn't going anywhere.
    If you keep the 4th line what else do you have?

    Simmonds is washed.
    That isn't helping the team win. Especially replacing a guy in the top 6.
    We don't need to make TOR mistake of brining in older guys who are done.
