No. Barrie has been a great offensive D-man for them, and Landeskog has been solid 1LW for them. They won't be even near contending status if they get rid of those two assets.

God no, OEL is great but thats over playing to the max and getting weaker in the Top 6 and long term.

The "upgrade" of Barrie to OEL is not worth moving Landy and a first. Panik is a cap dump

They're within a lucky bounce of the playoffs already. Don't "Panik."

Absolutely not. This would make them worse.
