Yep….I'm seeing a pending logjam. Somebody could very well be moved.

Exactly.

There’s 8 winger spots. I don’t view Raddyish and Duhaime as elite 4th liners whose spots are locked down.

Agreed, but I also don't think you trade for Hoglander to be a 4th line winger or want Miro/Leonard/Cristall to be 4th line wingers long-term.

No way in hell are all three of Lenny, Miro, and Cristall in the line up full time next year.

No but it's very realistic that two of the three could make it next year. And, all three could definitely be in the lineup by 26-27.

That’s what the AHL is for. Caps have been patient with their prospects, I hope that continues.

That’s pretty far off and who knows how our guys will pan out. And Ovie will likely be gone by the time Miro/Leonard/Cristall are all impact NHLers.
