This team needs to add a Top 3 forward and a Top 4 defenseman. The team also needs to move Bailey and his contract out of here.

Defense

Pelech-Pulock
Dober-?????? Chychrun, Dunn, Theodore
Salo-Mayfield Mason

Forwards
Make a play for Fiala, Johnny G, Boser, Forsberg, Marner, Huberdeau,

Go after teams in cap trouble.

To help the leafs out with their cap it would have be a player with picks and or prospects. Not sure what the leafs would ask for in that department.

It would be say Isles want Marner....Now who/ what would the leafs want in return. Remember cap is worth something.

Nice to see Florida grow some testicles down 2 games to none. Maybe they'll learn how to handle playoff hockey yet.

I feel like I'm the only one that's not expecting anything big this summer.

Definitely possible. Had a really deep thought written for this and the site crashed and wiped it out so that’s all I got right now. Just about done with this site.

Lou cannot sit idlily by with this current lineup and expect an different outcome. If he does it is a huge mistake on his part and the part of the organization.

We'll see. I have no idea what Lou has in mind. I'm just saying that I won't be surprised if we don't see any big moves for whatever reason.

No matter how you slice it he’s going to have to fill in a couple spots at the very least.

key thing is that Dobson & Salo are gonna need new contracts with team having about $12m of cap space w/o anyone moved out.
Cant wait n see what Lou does

Expecting some people on here to act like adults? About 7 years.

Yes. I wasn't saying he's not going to do anything. I'm not going to be surprised if he doesn't do anything big. I certainly don't think he's going to trade Bailey.

I'm going to say Lambert will have some input for sure, however Barzal's opinion will be the driving force on what Lou does this off season.
