Well, from my standpoint, and you're around them a lot, Frank, but they have established the core of the team is already in place.
It's going to be one of Dobish or Fowler.
Both of them will be there, but one of them might separate and be the number one goaltender.
Montembeau is out of the loop?
He's going to be, yeah.
They're just going to cut bait with him.
But you've got...
You've got Dobson locked in.
You've got Hudson locked in.
You just re-signed Matheson.
You've got Gooley on term.
Those are your top four defensemen in some capacity, and I think they feel pretty comfortable with Oliver Kapanen as their second-line center.
I mean, maybe that adjusts into the future, but you know you've got Suzuki, you've got Caulfield, you've got Slavkovsky, you've got Demidov.
You've got everything in place.
The top four defense, three or four electric forwards, two good young goalies.
Some veteran leadership.
It's not a super sexy class.
That's what I'm saying, though.
They don't need to acquire someone that pushes the depth chart down, is my point.
They're not looking for a number one center.
