I was scoping the lineup projections (based on current state) in the thread and almost every one of them is missing Snively completely. He brings speed and youth, is very well liked, and was just signed to a two-year, one-way $950k deal. He's likely to be on the roster and Caps brass likes him in top 6. Focusing on forwards here:
OV-Kuzy-Brown
Snively-Strome-Oshie
Eller-CMM-Mantha (We played Eller at LW for a game or two and I think that will continue)
Sheary-Dowd-Hathaway (we know we have talent when we can play Sheary on 4th line - he is a perfect fit)
Mojo-Pilon-Leason
AJF-Protas
Malenstyn-Lapierre
LTIR: Wilson, Hags, Backstrom
Also worth noting that we haven't done much on Hershey signings. I think that is because we expect several folks who don't make Caps will be sent down and that could include Mojo, Pilon, AJF, and Malenstyn who are on one-way deals. I worry about Leason and AJF clearing waivers. Mojo, Pilon, and Malenstyn will clear. Protas and Lapierre are waiver exempt.
