Why is Janmark getting so much? You can find 6 goal scorers for a lot less. Interesting that you have him ahead of Kostin, who has been much better.

This looks pretty reasonable though. I do expect Holland to make some larger moves in the summer.

His current scoring pro-rates to ~10g and 20a over an 82 games period while being a net positive player at 5-on-5 when away from Drai and McDavid (20-18 GF) and killing penalties. I don't know about your gauge, but that strikes me as an entirely reasonable cap hit for such a player. While I agree Kostin has been effective, he's also been pretty high-event and has run pretty hot this year. I think a short term deal (1 or 2 years; not 3) at ~900k to see if he can replicate his success is the likely arrangement.

Janmark over Kostin is not a personal preference, it is solely based on Woody's deployment. There is definitely a bias there with the coach and the lineup is indicative of that.

As for Major moves, I want to believe that is a possibility however, unless this teams falls flat on its face come playoff time, I don't see major changes coming for a few reasons.
1. Cap constraints: EDM only has $8.5M in cap space to sign 6-8 roster players (21-23 man roster) including key RFA's (Bouchard and McLoed)
2. Ekholm: I have a hunch that Holland had 1 bullet left when it came to making the big acquisition. He has shown in his time here he would prefer to not deal 1st round picks and in moving 2 to get Ekholm I highly doubt we will see another moved before the 2024 TDL.
3. LTIR: with Klefbom and Smiths deal finally off the books EDM will be out of LTIR and therefore will be able to accrue space throughout the year, Major moves would likely bring them right to the cap as big time players often carry big time cap hits. This would limit EDMs deadline space

The way I see it with the group is Holland has his core and complimentary players, he wont look to add another major piece in the offseason. He will likely look to tinker at or near the deadline using his accrued cap space. Furthermore he will give the young guns (Desharnais, Holloway, Broberg, Lavoie, Bourgault) as much runway as he can.

Would I Love to see a creative way to add Erik Karlsson absolutely I would but I genuinely don't believe Holland will go that route.
