So Now what

Description
Brought back some familiar faces to fill some obvious gaps but I think this roster is still missing a few key pieces. Notably down the middle, thinking it is time to move on from Monahan, and on D. Mackey and Kylington are coming along but it wouldn't hurt to have a more established addition to our defense. Maybe Schmidt? If the Canucks want to deal with a division rival.

I've seen Rielly deals in other ACGMs before but I have no clue what his ask might be which would really depend on how soon we can get Tkachuk and Gaudreau extensions.

Savard is also an option? Doesn't cost us an asset but does cost us cap space.

Gus is unusable in the top 4, he’s a complete liability at even strength. Not worth 3mil, maybe 1.5 to be a bottom pair guy. I could see us bringing in a guy actually worth around 3mil so fill in at 2LD so Valimaki isn’t just gifted the spot and has to earn it. We shouldn’t spend more than 2mil on a backup, luckily there are plenty of options (Reimer, Rittich, Raanta, Halak, etc.). I predict we add at least two top 9 forwards, hopefully at least one of which is an established 25ish goal guy for the 2nd line (ideally both are top 6 guys). Could also move Monahan for a top 6 C/RW as a shake-up, wouldn’t be overly surprised with a brand new 2nd line type of thing. I’m kinda disappointed we didn’t get Buchnevich or Reinhart, I would give up the price they received in a heartbeat.

I've seen a number of Flames ACGM's signing him. What does McCabe bring? (legit asking, not familiar with him at all)

Buch would've been a nice pickup for sure.

As for Reinhart, it's hard to do a direct comparison prospect wise because it all depends on how Buffalo viewed the respective prospects. Maybe Tre made an offer with Wolf but the Sabre's didn't see him as we might.

Honestly, I'd much rather see extensions for Tkachuk and Gaudreau at this point than some random blockbuster done for it's own sake.
