love the optimism haha

If they do miss the playoffs they need to trade off the Girouxs and Voraceks on the team. The Lindnbloms and Patricks aren't going anywhere. The YOUNG core needs to be retained, but any veterans close to that 30 mark should be gone.

Also Seattle isn't going to take Laughton unless you give them a pick when they could have a solid young dman.

if this happens im fine w ditching voracek and maybe even JVR which should get a huge return. giroux however im not on board with dealing. the top line of g - coots - tk is too good and also 3 guys of the different age groups. but youre right, patty, tk, provy, sanheim, lindblom, those guys are cemented in a rebuild

Yeah, no. Having Jake come back would be neat, but not at the cost of Anderson. And that year in particular is awkward given that we would still need to resign PLD.
