Gilroy 7 man

But McDonagh and Valentenko are pretty close to me
Not to start the year. You can limit his minutes by not starting him on the PK or PP. But, as he gains experience, you can build up his responsibilities. I do think he's a good fit for Staal, though. Plus, you put the experienced Roszival with the rookie, (in my scenario, McD), and and you keep Girardi next to MDZ. I like Girardi next to MDZ better than either Sauer or Roszival, simply because MDZ needs that kind of stable partner. Sauer should become that kind of D-man in a year or two.
