Pretty good roster. The big question mark is Toews... is he back next season? I suppose they have Tyler Johnson as insurance if he doesn't. Will they sign Nylander? D core is a little thin at bottom pair, but Hawks probably not done yet, and will have cap space if Toews is not back. Not happy they let Kampf walk, but what can you do.. McCabe is a good signing. Under rated player

Quoting: donniebrasco

I'm willing to bet that Kalynuk replaces C. Jones but I just put him on the taxi squad to get the cap to work because Kaly doesn't need waivers. If Toews isn't healthy yet, I think Johnson would replace him at 2c, but I'm cautiously optimistic about him being healthy. Nylander is honestly a coin flip for me. Maybe he gets a prove it deal or maybe he goes to Europe for a season. Idk. I'm excited to see what McCabe can do. Admittedly, I didn't watch him because I'm not terribly interested in buffalo
