Do I think this will be the team? No
I think this all depends on if Nylander signs an extension or not
I’d love to keep Robertson, I think he can be useful in the middle 6 + PP2, kind of like what Jarnkrök did this year. I do think that he’s going to be included in any trade involving Nylander though.
Foote adds size being lost in Schenn and Holl and Jones adds needed depth.
Bringing back Engvall for a 4th line + PK role I think is a good idea. Him and Laff would be tough to go up against with their speed. I want to see McMann get more of a shot to play with the big club this year and Reeves brings some needed toughness. I think rolling those 4th line wingers is the way to go, gives different looks depending on who’s there.
Bertuzzi’s self explanatory, top 6 grit. I liked how Knies played in the playoffs, I think he can move up and down the lineup just to manage his minutes coming out of college.
