Description
Maybe Kovalenko knocks someone out of the lineup when he comes over, but it's probably more likely someone is injured and he just replaces them.

Johnson plays until Bear heals up. Malinski can also get some games between now and then.

Note that more money is available if they're willing to waive McDermid, but I'm being optimistic here.

I would avoid Kane like the plague, especially given his injury. He is not a fraction of the player he once was, and even a minor injury at his age could end his career.

If Tatar is willing to sign for 2m, that's where I'd put my money.

I'd rather take the slight gamble on a guy coming back from injury than go with one who is all but guaranteed to disappear come playoff time. I used to think Tatar would be a good add, but after another letdown when it counts, I have very little interest.

I'd agree at his previous salary, which is no doubt why the Devils chose to move on from him, but at a bottom six salary of 2m it seems hardly a problem.

its crazy how tatar has been bad pretty much his whole career in the playoffs, love the guy but i've never seen anything quite like it.
