Keep Cogliano, LTIR Methot Hanzal and Johns, swap out Gurianov for Robertson, run the top 6 of

Benn-Spezza-Radulov
Kreider-Seguin-Gurianov

Yep. We would have to pay someone to take Hanzal, cause his career is likely over. LTIR is perfect.

You want to put Spezza on the top line? The same Spezza that has 1 point in the 2019 calendar year? Yeah, no.

Hintz-Seguin-Radulov
Kreider-Benn-Gurianov

Spezza has one point because he plays 3rd line RW with Dickinson and Cogliano, and before that his linemates was Erik Condra and brett Ritchie

And there’s a reason for that. Spezza has slowed down over the last 2+ years. Just because he’s paid like a top-6 Center does not mean he’s got the skill level of one. At this point, he’s a bottom-6 Center. That’s just simply where he’s at in his career. There’s no point in trying to force him to play in a role that wouldn’t be beneficial to him or the team.
