I definitely feel like I need to make 1-2 moves to bolster my squad if I want to be serious about potentially winning some $$ (my playoff spot is essentially guaranteed barring cataclysmic circumstances, but we can also earn some $$ for winning division, etc.). I already made a big move to acquire Ovi a few months ago so no half-measures anymore. No 1st round pick this year or next year either (RIP), though I do have 2nd-5th this year and next
My roster
C - Couture, Scheifele, Couturier, Nelson, Toews, Motte, Aston-Reese
W - Ovechkin, Kucherov, Foligno, Nichushkin, Anderson, Granlund, Goodrow, Hoffman, Hornqvist
D - Gudas, Forsling, Dunn, Muzzin, Miller, MccCabe, Shattenkirk, Schmidt
G - Campbell, Kuemper, Koskinen
minors: Brown, Kupari, Pelletier, Katchouk, Luostarinen, Bolduc, Hirvonen, Bowers, Andersson, Korczak x2, Roulette, Cuylle, Firstov, Oksentyuk, Legare, Brook, McClennon, Chayka, Hunt, Kokkonen, Rindell, Villeneuve, Walsh, Capobianco, Foote, Mitchell, Commesso, Kochetkov, Ersson
I already have somewhat of an idea of what I want to do, its clear as day that my D corps is abysmal (not joking, 5/7 of those guys were FA pickups this year lol), and also I'm not sold on my goalie situation at all. I feel like I should capitalize on big years from some of my guys who may be peaking and try to upgrade. Would love any input or advice on who to ship out and if any of my minors would have any value? I've never been that good at predicting who might become a legit NHLer.
players I've had my eye on are Seth Jones, Devon Toews, and to a lesser extent Quinn Hughes, Matt Dumba, Ghost, Krug, Morrissey. All theoretically getable as they're all rostered on teams below our playoff line. Of those 6 I like Jones the most (a fantasy stud, no salary implications, really no competition for number one d-man anytime soon) however he would obviously cost the most. Who would be the most fair target here, considering my preference for guys in their prime (27-30ish range)?
