Dontvthink any of those signings will happend. St Louis doesnt want to downgrade Parayako - that would cost Draisaitl. Russel wont wave, and holyboverpayment for Cristoval Nieves. Wjat i think is wise management is to ride out next year, anx then buy out Lucic, or trade him, edmonton have to eat a bit more of his contract to grow nice, thier young prospects needs shelter and competition. Clear cap by throw out Rattie, Brodziak, Manning in a trade with high draftpick, keep all young prospects. Sign Reider cheap, 1$.If notbpossible - say goodbye. If Gagner produces with Draisaitl - keep him. If not - goodbye , clear capspace. Get a third line C by trade or sign for max 2$. Then the year after - trade Or buy out Lucic. Trade one of the RDs Bear Benning, Bouchard, Larsson. See if Yamamoto anf Puljujärvi is tradechipf or keepers. Let Benson, Osfin, Lagesson etc grow into the team. The only good way really. If Draisaitl and McJesus can be lift of the burden by one more takented player - is jusy enough for the middle year to playoff I think.
