Honestly, the only guys i would consider part of our core if i was building a championship team (that could compete in next 3-4 years) would be:
Zajac as 2nd line C
Henrique as 3rd line C or Top 6 winger
Larsson as Top 2 D
Merrill as Top 4 D
Gelinas as Top 4 D (PP specialist)
Corey as our Starting G
I would hope that Severson/Santini can fill out our top 4 and Boucher can be a Top 6 winger.
Other than that, i wouldnt mind getting rid of the other guys to fill part of the championship puzzle. Still a long way to go but if our D prospects pan out, then we will have a very big and talented defence and very solid goaltending with Corey. We actually arent in that bad of a place but we could really use some young snipers on the wings as well as a true 1C.
I wouldnt oppose Greene and Fayne being part of the future but ideally i would use them as trade chips to get some forwards. Greene is probably our biggest chip since he's signed to a bargain deal and playing like a true top 2 dman (although he was shaky today
)
