      That’s an expensive 4th line and bottom 4D

      I doubt it, Canes are a legitimate contender amd he fits their mold so well

      I'd much rather have Nino and a 2nd than Risto. The situation you got yourself in here is gonna result in not having enough cap for Jarvis and Necas when they need to get paid. The depth pieces are getting paid too much imo. Like Martinook is a great leader and all, but he is certainly not worth 3mil.

      you could get a significantly better player than Risto for Nino, especially if you're willing to add

      Canes are in pretty good cap position. Think some of the bottom end signings are a little high, but it would solidify a good forward group. Even with Hamilton, still a good defence.

      If Hamilton walks, which I think is a foregone conclusion, I’d easily trade Niederreiter for Ristolainen, ufa to be for ufa to be. They’re not going to be re-signing Niederreiter, so why not turn him into a poor man’s Hamilton replacement.

      I’ve always thought that Ristolainen would do well on another team. Pair him with Slavin, let him run the PP and do his thing offensively and I’d be pretty shocked if he wasn’t a 40-50pt guy on the Canes. For all his foibles, he still is a top 4 RD, just certainly not a #1D. I’d rather the Canes pay up for Hamilton, but could definitely see them bringing in Ristolainen as a replacement.

      Heck no to adding a 2nd to Niederreiter.

      I also think that they will do their best to keep Skjei safe from Francis. Slavin-Ristolainen, Skjei-Pesce isn’t really that much of a downgrade from what they have now.

      Martinook and Mcginn aren’t worth that much.

      Pass on Risto. Give us a shutdown righty if Bean is the 2LD.

      Canes need guys on short deals. Having the 4th line and 3LD on larger and long deals doesn’t offer the flexibility for keeping Tro and Necas long term.
