IMO, more than any goalie, NJD should be prioritizing an 2LD.
The Dcore significantly struggled, and while a significant amount of improvement should come from within (Hamilton back, Siegs/Marino bounceback, Luke/Nemec development) an improvement on Bahl/Smith should be acquired.
If Siegs/Marino don't bounce back it will be a necessity to have another quality dman, and if they do it will create an elite Dcore.
Bahl/Smith specifically need to be replaced, as they have been very disappointing, and cannot complete a breakout pass to save their life.
The first guy who has consistently sprang to mind is Pettersson. He is a great puck mover, excellent defensively and on the PK, and already has over 2000 minutes played with John Marino.
I assume the cost would be similar to a normal rental cost (if available) 1st+sweetener.
What are some other potential targets/fits for this role in either UFA or trade, as well as their potential costs?
Off the top of my head some examples would be potentially Gavrikov, McDonagh, Dillon, Ferraro, Samuelsson, Martinez, etc.
