Eichel. Biggest hole in my opinion is a lack of truly game breaking forward talent, especially down the middle. They've got a really great base with Tkachuk, Batherson, Norris and Stützle, but adding a legit franchise C to that group would put them into a completely different tier. They're in a such a unique position where they have the Cap Space, the assets, and most importantly there's actually a player of that level who is available by trade.

Adding a Stud RD sounds great, but I'm not sure they need it, at least not more than they need a top C. I think they have two absolutely top level Dmen in Chabot and Sanderson, and I think they have a good group of supporting pieces coming to build a really solid D core. If you look at Tampa's D as a comparison, they didn’t exactly have a super strong right side compared to the awesome left side, especially in 2020. What they did have was the right group of supporting pieces who were able to mesh well with the top level talent they did have. In my opinion, they do have those pieces coming up. Zub is a truly excellent defensive RD, I think JBD is gonna be a similar type of guy capable of playing in the top 4, and they have guys like Thomson/Guennette/Roger who have the potential to fill out that bottom of the lineup with real quality.
