Not really sure about Skinner either. It's a 1 year deal, so ok but long term I don't know how you sell Draisaitl on re-signing with that. Arvidsson also is only 2 years.
It shows we are committed to Drai's peak performance, which is likely really important to him in the big picture imo.


In a vacuum we probably prefer Henrique, and that's why people are taking about Kane trade. There has to be some sort of cap dump coming now.

Skinner is a streaky 1 dimensional guy. Not hard to play against, not defensively great.. I guess they bank on him scoring alot but I dunno. One guy who screams 'me first' rather than a team guy you win with but oh well, it's done.

Now what about Janmark, Jackson?
McDavid will be enough.

Either Janmark isn’t back or they have a deal lined up to send Ceci or Kulak away.

Don’t love the Skinner deal especially after signing Arvidsson, would have rathered allocate to C but maybe RNH at 3C is the plan.

I think we may try all of McLeod Nuge and Holloway in that spot. If we don’t make another move that is

I do wonder what the long term decision on re-signing Draisaitl is, which will also have cascading effects on what McDavid does as well.

I would have rather put the money to stabilizing 3C honestly.

Holloway looked decent in the middle. Maybe we can try him there if Nuge struggles.

I guess they can't commit to many long term contracts given they have the two huge ones coming up in McDavid and Draisaitl and how that goes, plus Bouchard is RFA next season which will be another huge contract to have to sign.

Where's Janmark in all of this, I wonder.. guy played like a lion in the biggest moments.
