Brad,
Fair points. Though I’m not sure you can trade Brodziak. I do believe it’s moot, however, as he can be buried and the cost on the cap is minimal.
As for Kassian, I like the player. He has size, speed, toughness and some skill. At, like, 2mil that’s a keeper for me.
Benning is interesting. Not sure what you can get for him but trading him is a legitimate option. In my head I think he’s good at 6 or 7 D. The reason I move up Persson is that he’s a puck mover and might work better than Russell wth Nurse. And you can go back to Sekera-Russell or have Benning play with Sek. IMO it’s better for Jones to play big minutes on the farm. Benning can sit as your 7th. Jones et all are call-up options. Good depth I’d say.
I specifically chose the Johansson type because he can play both center and wing. I like having that skilled center/winger option. So we are looking at it the same way I think.
Marody needs to work on his skating. He might come to camp a step faster and force the conversation but, again, no harm having young guys ready to jump up when needed. Positives, I believe.
Currie is just a wildcard for me and you can substitute his name with anyone, really.
You may be very right when looking at Rattie and Khaira’s cap hit for next year. Hard to gauge really. But 3 goals is 3 goals. I was hesitant to give either 1mil to be fair. I just tried to be reasonable.
