Description

Assumes Stalock can play equal to Koskinen at camp. Keeps from losing Stalock on waivers. If doesn't work out, no risk in moving Koskinen up/down and can waive Stalock then. Buys more time to sort out Koskinen. Almost same cap hit either way.

Last chance for Benson to stick which I don't think he will.

Take a flyer on Svechnikov but not sure he's a fit. If he does perform over the year, can resign and move Hyman to right side and deal Kassian or Yamamoto depending on how they play and to make room for Holloway. Best case is Svechnikov sticks as 3LW, use Holloway as 3C next year, move Ryan to 13th forward and McLeod to 4C.

Deal Lagesson while some value and call up Samarukov if need be during the year.

Koekkoek and Russell can play both sides if need be which helps 2nd unit PK on right side

3rd line size and speed on forecheck would be great.
