Description
Admittedly, I'm not super familiar with the timeline of some of the guys in our system, so I'm guessing a bit here. Really just trying to get a general idea of how the team may look going into the 24-25 season

I'm guessing Ceulemans and Meteychuk aren't gonna be ready yet, at least when the season starts. Other guys I've included, yes. I like how the wingers are marched up line-wise, but not so sure about the centers. Not sure if it's wise to throw Carlsson kif that's the pick) right out on the top line to start (assuming he doesn't get more than his 10 game tryout this upcoming season) I also don't know if Cole will be able to handle it at that point either though, so that kinda leaves Jenner, at least to start the season. Then you're probably hoping Leo grows into 1C by the end of the year and Cole can be 2C (assuming KJ stays as wing this whole time, which is up in the air)

Would appreciate any thoughts on changes, whether opinionated, or informative if I'm wrong on timelines for some of these guys.

Note: I didn't think too hard about the contracts. Put a little bit of thought, but mostly spitballed since I was move focused on seeing a potential lineup.

Additional Details:
Destination and return not too important. Get the impression that his time is limited at this point. Maybe 30% chance he's moved this offseason, but whether it's a trade this offseason, in season, or trading away his RFA rights, I don't anticipate Bean in the long term plan.

There is no way we go into this upcoming season with this roster. Jarmo is going to sign or trade for someone on the backend. As far as the forwards go, Jarmo is going to use our depth players to facilitate moves.

That makes this even more unrealistic. Sillinger has done nothing to earn a contract like that, and there will be bigger changes down the middle and on the blue line.

If this is the case, Jarmo has been fired and a new GM is figuring out how to blow it up.
