Description
Ullmark will go sadly. It is time for Swayman to take over.

Debrusk has been fun to watch, but you never know if he will show up. Guentzal will show up. Him with solid 2 way players in Coyle/Marchand could work well, or we could stack him up with Zacha/Pasta for a killer 1st line.

Add Bertuzzi who may not always put up the numbers, but he is a pain to play against and his effort is always there. He played well on a Zacha/Pasta line in the past as well.

Bring back Heinen as a solid bottom 6 player who can move around and bring forbore back on a 1yr discount to prove he is back in form on low minutes. It is a lower risk move knowing we have Watherspoon as an option.

NJ not giving up 10th pick for Ullnark.

Make it their 25 1st with some protection. You likely have a deal

Holtz?


I'd prefer to keep him over the 25 1st but if he's who the bruins want I'd reluctantly accept

This last series has me out on the Zacha as a center option. He consistently loses the big face off. Either Guentzel is replaced with Lindholm or Bertuzzi is replaced with Stephenson.

Considering Sweeney has been trying to acquire Elias Lindholm, I assume he’s one who is going to be acquired and that one down year isn’t going to tank his value.

I struggle with this because I think Lysell deserves a shot and my guess is it would be either Holtz or Lysell who gets it. Personally, I think Lysell’s upside is higher but they are in the same range of talent

That said, I’d rather have the proven talent over a protected pick.

I been trying to say I don't think Zacha is a center.

I let the regular season cloud my judgment. He can situationally beat most third line centers, but when he’s facing the better face off guys, he loses.

I think he’s top 6 and I like his two way play. Been a bargain and a great acquisition, but playing Morgan Geekie in the top 6 is just off
