MTL does in fact need a C and an LD. That's about the extent of the praise I'm willing to give.
1. Charles Hudon was over 2 S/gp last year. That's over 20 goal pace with decent luck. That's better than what we saw from Scherbak. Put him at 3RW. A winger's a winger.
2. Paul Byron scored 20 goals last year. Get him out of the press box.
3. Jonathan Drouin's results have been better on the wing than at C. This year's free agent class has tons of middle-six centres. Grab Plekanec and put Drouin back where he belongs.
4. Stastny had very good numbers last year, and is a very good player. Pretty respectable 1C. But giving him 7 million for four years is just asking for trouble, especially at 32.
5. Why are we trading for Duclair? He's a good probable 20-goal middle-six winger, but that's our biggest area of surplus. Personally, I'd keep Lindgren, since Price's recent injury history suggests we need more than Niemi at backup.
6. This lineup is almost certainly costing us 2 of Hudon, Lehkonen, and Byron, if not all 3. That's a cause for concern.
7. CDH isn't the greatest option at 1LD out there. NYI's well-documented issues in their own end make me question how well he'll work, especially when Oscar Klefbom is on the market, and while healthy, he was #1D on a really solid team.
8. Mete > Alzner. Better possession, comparable points pace with worse shooting luck, young enough to improve.
9. 23-man roster limit. Clean that roster up.
Between iffy trades, bad usage and a terrifying contract, I do not approve of this team at all.
