Sweeney had the right idea last season at the deadline, but I would do it earlier this year.
We have a million prospects. Every year we add to it and the additions seem to be pretty damn good. Andersson, Lauko and Studnicka look better than prospects that were already in house.
Marchand, DeBrusk and Pastrnak are firmly entrenched as top two line wingers. Bergeron and DK here for 3 years minimum. Leaves one spot. How many of these guys do you need?
Donato, Heinen, Bjork, Lauko, Stud, Freddy, JFK all seem capable 3rd liners at worst. Urho, Zboril, Lauzon, Andersson.....
Plenty of trade bait if they so need it, they should go for it
