Thread: realistic offseason moves
Here are my thoughts on your opinions.

1. Firing Keefe fixes nothing. In fact I think he is an excelent coach. They do however need to change the assistant coaches as many of the systems run by Malhotra and Hakstoll were abysmal...

2. I really love the idea of getting Driedger and completely agree that we need a 1A 1B tandum next year. Driedger may price himself out though and him and Campbell would only have a combined 135 games or so which would be concerning..

3. Why would you trade Holl? Him and Muzzin was a great shut down pairing all season and playoffs.. He is great value at his current contract to imo.

4. Oleksiak would be great, but he had a great year in Dallas if i remember right so he should price himself out of leafs range ($1M or less). Either him or Benn would be fine. At the end of the day they would be replacing Bogosian and play the same style though so you're not really gaining anything

5. Kuraly is great, but at the end of the day it is still a depth signing and our depth guys this year were fine. If anything I think you would be better off not paying a 4th line winger $1.8M and instead get a guy like Simmonds or Perry who would sign for less than $1m

6. I like all those guys in the NHL as well
