Mitch Marner doesn't get paid that much to play 3rd line. Neither does Marleau. Lines combos aren't going to work. Having multiple rookies on the left to doesn't work. Needs work on lines for sure. Rhychel and Levio are most likely gone at this point. Doughty doesn't sign here for the same amount as L.A. One of the best D men is going to get paid after this contract. And your D men aren't going to top heavy they are going to be spread out so there aren't weaknesses

that's a very weak left wing, just because money was needed for doughty. leave and rychel may not be nhlers and johnson on the first line.
