I think Danault at 4 years, 5.5 or 6 mil frontloaded is a good deal for this team.
58.6 cf with 59.4 dZS.
I think running Larkin/Danault/Rasmussen/Glendening as our center group next year makes us a very good defensive team. Veleno can start out on the wing as he played well there in Malmo this year. Danault can also slot down to 3rd line C if/when one of our kids (Veleno, Rasmussen or Beniers if we miraculously draft him.) prove they can be a first or second line C.
Hamilton is on my wishlist for defense but I sincerely doubt that happens. Carolina is going to shed salary to keep the guy. I'd hold off on the big defense UFA until Werenski is available in 2022. Throw 7.5 at him for 6 or 7 years. There's your #2 guy next to Seider.
Bring Merrill back. He's affordable and a good soldier. I'd give him a 2 or 3 year deal for cost certainty.
