hopefullt gallagher is gone at that time ( LTIR or even bought out)

and one of roy, mesar or farrel should be good for that third Line spot. (or even bring anderson down, he doesnt belong on the top line.)

probably even sign a a top foward UFA to play top six outside of RHP and anderson, i dont think RHP will repeat the success of last year.

i can see Roy and Beck making the team in 24-25, Heineman is also pretty close, maybe this year one of Beck or Heineman makes the team as they both looked good last year's camp, also that roster is before any ufa or trades. a top 10 in 24 (likely a forward) is more or less a year or two away so very likely to be in the 25-26 roster, the worst of the two 25 pick could also be traded along w a prospect to upgrade either the top 6 f or top 4 d. a goalie is whats currently missing, very likely a ufa or trade.
Hutson being in laval in 25-26 is weird though.

This team would have $35M+ of capspace with Price and Gally on LTIR.

Gallagher will probably be on LTIR by then I agree
I just don't see Beck having another rookie next to him (Farrell/Mesar/Roy/Heineman)
Maybe RHP-Beck-Anderson could be a decent 3rd line
Bumping up Newhook

Anyway, I wouldn't be surprise if we WON'T have 3-4 rookies at forward in 2024-25

Not next year, but the year after, things will start to be interesting

Maybe or maybe not a bubble team, but at least we will see young players instead of dead wood
