Huge respect to Steen, what a pro.
Not a fan of acquiring Marchessault. You just dodged a bullet with Steen going on LTIR so you can now sign your top young LHD. Focus o getting deals for Schwartz (if you wanna keep him) and Thomas before even considering adding anyone else in the mix. Armstrong has made some questionable veteran signings in last 18 months that may end up being a Steen LTIRetirment or buyout all over again (Schenn till 37, Faulk till 35, Krug till 36, Scandella till 34). I'd be very cautious bringing in Marchessault till he's 34. Bozak will walk or take a paycut at end of year . You still have guys like Sundqvist, Kyrou, Barbashev, Kostin, Sanford still developing- see where you're at in a year with them IMO.
