C'mon now. Is this serious? Smith will likely play on the left. Subban only has 2 years remaining. Carrick is irrelevant.
Essentially they are missing a top pairing LD and RD.
They do not have the assets to trade for a solid dman with size. The ONLY UFA that fits this year is Pietrangelo. They are better off going that direction on an overpay than overpaying another middle pairing guy that still leaves them outmatched vs top lines.
Remember, some of you see me as a resident pessimist (realist), yet here I am saying Devs have roughly a 50% shot.
Smith has played his entire career as RD...
Why would he come here?
