I don't like the idea of trading for Cirelli with Sillinger here, and I'd rather have the cheaper, younger Sillinger. Cirelli is elite defensively, but he's a 3rd-line shutdown guy making too much money for too long. Sillinger on the 4th line is a waste when Kuraly fills that role now and LDBB fills that role later. I think adding Cirelli at the expense of Marchenko, who we need more, is also a waste.
I'm fine with the Necas trade, and that's the kind of trade we should be looking for, but Carolina might not bite.
I do like the Dillon signing, and if we add Silayev at 4OA that's an elite left side in 3-4 years.
