Description

Fire Lindy for a stronger two way coach (Woodcroft? Nasreddine?). Saros becomes franchise goalie with Daws maintaining his role as a strong backup. Boqvist fills out the defense as a really strong defensive defenseman with some untapped offensive potential. Play Holtz more. When it comes down to it the biggest problem with the team is the injuries. The team has an opportunity to double down now with Dougie on LTIR likely until playoffs. Circumvent the cap and go for the cup this year.
