The top 30 unrestricted free agents of 2018 | The Hockey News
"The 2018 free agent class is top heavy. The biggest names, from John Tavares to John Carlson, have come this far without re-signing, so they will likely reach the negotiating window in late June and hear offers from new teams. The open market will produce major bidding wars for some top-notch offensive players, many of them younger than 30. After the top 10 names or so, there’s a precipitous drop in talent. We get a sea of aging former stars and grinder defensemen. It's one of the shallowest UFA classes of all-time."
I don't agree with this assessment of who is available after the top 10. I like many of these names and I am convinced that the Leafs will make a splash and they'll do fine choosing outside of the top 10.
We need:
A 3C, 4C (could be a Marlie), A LW, and a top 4 D.
What do you think?
Outside of Tavares and Carlson who do you like? Is anyone interested in Nash? What about DeHaan?
