Ottawa's fine on the blue line. We will have a top pairing of Karlsson/Cowen for years to come (though not this year obviously), Ceci as mentioned is a very safe bet as at least a middle pairing guy, Methot is locked up and not exactly old, then AHL callups/cheap UFAs can fill out the bottom pairing, and this is not even considering any other draft picks coming up.
We need more top 6 forwards, as the only sure ones we have when Alfie is gone are Spezza, Michalek, and Turris. Silfverberg and Zibanejad have the best shots to become top 6 forwards, but even they arent sure bets. We need to hang onto our forward prospects. Our D will be fine.
