On the idea of 3C’s deep…

Petey
Bo
Miller

Cap savings needed to be found.
4th line TOI reduced to say 10-15mins.
Legit productivity from top 9 or at the least a commitment to stick it out assuming less money spent on D.
Special teams are a huge focus.
Team D is a must.
Speed & tenacity on puck hounding needs to be a priority to go along with better possession.

So much is predicated on how JB & company reshape the cap &/or moves doing such.

Cap space savings while running a 3 scoring line setup is done by going cheap on 4th line plus relatively cheap with 3rd wheel guys

Doubt Miller will buy into carrying a couple of 975K guys that won't prop his stats lol

Don't see the 3LC thing working.

Great point, totally agree that Miller wouldn’t be happy with that

Which is why Benning has to acquire a legit top 6 winger for that to work. Garland is is an example of one guy who fits the bill, but who knows what the asking price is.
