They need to be very active this offseason. Need scorers badly.
Thats why I think you need to bring up Wright and a couple others that may not be quite ready to see what you potentially have.
Up and down the roster a bunch of underachieving players when you look at the numbers. It sucks that we now have competent goal tending and now they can’t score.
You may have to trade away future draft picks to get scorers which I’d be fine with.
You better get ready to be really dissapointed this offseason.
The free agent class is absolute crap(not that I'd ever advocate going big in free agency) and there also doesn't seem to be any elite talent unhappy with their current situation.
My guess is that this will be a pretty boring offseason with maybe a trade for a solid guy and replacing Bellmare with a better center while bringing up Wright.
After re-signing Eberle and expecting the team to keep Benieres and Tolvanen as well, the Kraken will already have nine forwards under contract for next year and not all that much in cap space.
Therefore I think the offseason will be pretty uneventfull and the best option would be to keep some cap space in the event someone becomes availabe during next season.
Overall it also fits into what the team is doing cause looking back at interviews from last offseason the goal of the team seems to be to always "make the playoffs", at least according to Francis.
