TOR: Tyler Bozak, 2nd round pick in 2018

CBJ: David Savard

Projected Lines:

Hyman-Matthews-Marner
JVR-Nylander-Kapanen
Marleau-Kadri-Brown
Martin-Moore-Komarov

Rielly-Savard
Gardiner-Hainsey
Borgman-Zaitsev

I know a lot of people would say to put Marleau at centre and not to separate Nylander and Matthews but Marleau is getting older and why would you want to overplay him and risk injury. Marner will have just as much success with Matthews. The cap situations would be the same but Savard still has 4 years left at a reasonable 4.25M AAV. The draft pick is because Bozak is on his final year of contract.

I think if we trade for a dman, it's to get Hainsey off the right side.

Reilly savard
Gards zaitzev
Hainsey Carrick

Borgman

Other than that I like it.

I wouldn't mind seeing hainsey working with gardiner though the way he has with reilly. Also i'd rather try marner on centre and keep nylander with matthews.

I disagree, we got him specifically to play on the right side. He's used to playing on that side and does it well. He can bring Gardiner stability to the back end when he goes on his rushes.
