I really think that a bold move is going to happen to shore up the defense and 2C. Once the arbitration process moves forward, there may be more money to spend, once they release or get the fringe guys on a cheap contract. The Mason McTavish question is an interesting thought. We do have that 1st that belonged to Colorado in the Roy trade. Add another piece and I see it doable. Rielly? Probably not. However, dangle Brandon Carlo and that might be enough. Have them add a 2nd or 3rd rounder and see if that could do it. Of course, it would take finding another right handed defenseman for 3 RD. If there is a free agent that could do the job at 3 RD, then make that plug and play move.
