@ Pat : On Dobson, they could try to get him with an offer sheet. He will be an RFA. Would that work? I have no idea, but a team may try to do just that.
About Wifi, yes, he is still young but if they want to get better on the blue line next season, they may want to get better on their bottom 6. They have a pretty much decent top 4 with Ghule, Mahteson, Hutson and Carrier. If you get a guy like Dobson, I think you move Matheson as well. Maybe to get that #2 centre?
The number #2 centre would be my main focus this summer, thats for sure. They may want to move away from Laine and add another top 6 winger as well, but I think at least one of Dach, Laine or Newhook is on mtl top 6 next season.
At some point I did not think Crosby could happen but now, I dont know. Hopefully they dont trade Hague or Reinbacher to get him, but I think you are looking at mtl pick number 16 and 17 in 2025 and another piece (Mailloux?).
Fido is right, Malkin is done, at least I would not go there.
Dobes would be my back up, I fail to see why he would not start in mtl.Im not saying I would be against Dobson, but I dont think they need a top 4 defenseman to replace Savard. If not Reinbacher, I would expect them to add a number 5 or 6 defenseman. They have been linked to Nicolas Hague (I know, another leftie, but Wifi is barely an NHL defenseman).
Dach could bounce back next season on the wing, but he has to stay healthy. If Josh Anderson can help this team, Dach might be able to do it as well if he is willing to change his role with this team. Slaf is another guy who has to play big on this team.
Mr peanut, I want to have some fun with you and create bonds with you as well that go way beyond hockey team fandom.
