Re: Ovi - Wheeler - Laine - Hertl : pick two
Ovi - Guy is a points machine. Even if Laine bridges you're only looking at 2.5M in savings most likely compared to Ovi, but Ovi is a lock for 85+ point while who knows with Laine.
Hertl - Cheap, coming off a breakout season and has an even better opportunity this year
Zibanejad - Just got a nice linemate with Panarin, has more history of scoring at a decent pace than Domi, and is locked in on a bargain deal for two extra years.
Nurse - Gets to feed McDavid and is on a bargain bin deal. Other option would be Ellis, but he has much more competition to deal with.
Binnington - I consider him a Grubauer to be about equal. Both are relatively inexperienced starters, but one won the cup. I'd also expect to have an easier time keeping him than Binnington just on the basis of name value.
