Only problem with getting Duchene is we are over the cap.
Don't like giving up all those draft picks.
You need 1 more forward and 1 less defenseman

The F top 6 is the best i the league, but you're over the cap with no depth.

the last part really doesnt matter, at times last season they had 13-8-2 and at other times they had 14-7-2. Some games they only had a 22 man roster

Ex. 22 man roster https://www.nhl.com/gamecenter/bos-vs-tbl/2016/11/03/2016020151#game=2016020151
Ex. 13-8-2 https://www.nhl.com/gamecenter/mtl-vs-bos/2017/02/12/2016020832#game=2016020832

Ok but you need to account for the whole 23 against the cap for those games you are carrying the 23! So you need to plan for a 23 man-roster. For the most part it's 14-7-2.

yeah, the person who made this team still needs to make more cap room. I was more emphasizing that it doesnt need to be 14-7-2, like you said. As far as Boston goes, they used 13-8-2 more than 14-7-2 last season. But that's beside the point

I don't like the Duchene trade for either team; Boston should not be giving up that many draft picks, while Colorado probably wants another known player or two.

That bottom 6 would get chewed up and spit out on a nightly basis.
