I would bank on Dadonov bouncing back next year. He's been a huge disappointment this year, but is still on a 20 goal pace. He's gonna play with Stützle who I think is going to take a huge step next year, and they're supposedly looking to add a 2C to fill out the offense. I think it's going to be a much better spot for him next year, and he's got a way higher shot at being a real impactful player for Ottawa next year than Stalman does.
I do like the Granlund signing though. I think he's one of the names I would consider as options to fill that 2C slot next year. Stützle-Granlund-Dadonov seems like it could be a really nice line. Probably not the top choice because he's not necessarily a full time C (though I think he's an adequate C with 2nd line skill).
