1. Can't sign Formenton this season, hard to say about next year. We'll see but as the team is for sale, they won't want to deal with a potential PR nightmare so it depends what comes out of this
2. No chance Brannstrom signs that. Sens are kinda lucky (for now) that his good play isn't resulting in points
3. Same with JBD, don't see why he would sign that. He was establishing himself solidly when he got injured.
4. It was a bit useless to re-sign Gambrell. If the next management extends him 2 more years... it's not looking like things will improve
5. I really really hope they won't sign DeBrincat 8 years x 9.0 AAV. That would be a terrible mistake
6. Giroux and Batherson need to be switched, for defensive purposes.
7. Greig takes Formenton's spot if he is not coming back (not penciling him since it's totally unknown at this point) so Greig-Pinto-Joseph
8. Angus Crookshank could/should be the 4th line LW, so Crookshank-Kastelic and then hire a good vet 4th liner (Motte maybe if not expensive)
9. They really need to extend Artem Zub. I wouldn't mind having Zaitsev but as the 7th D
10. Sanderson and JBD played together at ND. Sanderson is carrying Hamonic this season so it would be a perfect pairing for JBD
11. No idea if Thomson will be ready or good enough to play with Brannstrom. Both kinda need a strong solid defensive D-man who play simple
Chabot - Zub
Sanderson - JBD
Brannstrom - ??????
Zaitsev
12. I actually hope they sign Magnus Hellberg as the 2nd goalie, won't cost an arm and a leg and think he would surprise a bit
