Description
I know it's cliche to sign Hamilton, but seriously imagine what he could do saucing it to McDavid and Draisaitl. If Holland can clear cap letting Barrie walk and signing Hamilton should be the priority.

Ullmark is very underrated, with a better team in front of him he is probably a vezina calibre goalie. sign at all costs.

In fourth line roles, Raffl, Glendening, and Lewis should be pretty serviceable, hardworking players.

Well's had a tough year constantly being called up and down, being stuck on the taxi squad, etc. But he still had a year of practice, hopefully he'd be ready for the backup role. He's a decently underrated goalie prospect.

Broberg might not be ready, so if he isn't send him down and plug in Lagesson.

I didn't do a Seattle pick because most of this is raw ideas.

          The value is there, but I like Kerfoot too much lmao

          I’d rather pay the 2nd for Seattle to take Dermott or Joseph Thomas Anderson

          Hamilton’s not signing in Edmonton.
          It was a great series. Smith played phenomenal and was a true battle of goaltending.
          I think Edm just needs to tweak their depth D so they can run 3 lines and get some secondary scoring while trying to bring in a big name winger for McJesus and you should do well.
          It was a great watching that series.

          you might have gotten a better Dman in hamilton but the d as a whole is worse overall, you need to use some of that cap space to get some actual depth there

          Having 4 young defencemen is kinda concerning...

          My idea would be to let them hit their bumps and let them grow for a year. Jones and Bear have spent enough time in the NHL to at least pass by as a second pair, while Broberg/Bouchard should make a decent sheltered third pair.
