Rodrigues would have been great here. I don't think Duchene would have ever signed here.

Graves is also going to be a valuable person moving forward, I still think he is a good signing even if players like Shea have shown promise.

Rakell and his 5m X 5 years seems to be a long term anchor.

Agreed, I think more cap could have been allocated to the forwards this season but once the cap goes up and Carter comes off, Graves will be a fixture for a long time

I think he'll be just fine when he comes back. Even though he hasn't been scoring, I think Malkin & Smith's production with vs without Rakell speaks a lot to his play
