I like Eichel a **** ton (which is a lot for those too young/old to translate
)... but the simple and most obvious move is drafting McDavid and then management FINALLY making other moves to help with a) defense b) goaltending and c) grit/size in the top 9.
I could certainly get behind proposals that bring those essential elements into the roster.
Keep the best and trade the rest. Balance on the roster certainly desperately needs addressing as even with the best offensive top 6 in the NHL... the team will still flounder if other areas aren't upgraded and fixed.
1 golden piece will soon be added but there are still MANY holes on this roster which McDavid can't fix and MacT stating that next year is another development year isn't going to get this team headed in the right direction anytime soon.
