I think it's gonna be difficult for Brustevic at least to start the season on the NHL roster.

Yeah, I'd agree entirely.

That was one of the biggest takeaways.

We're curious about how they're gonna assemble their top four, but we knew Nemec and Pred could be in there.

The question was, where are they at on Brustevic, who absolutely is one of their best eight defensemen, but absolutely does not need waivers, as you pointed out.

And it's a little bit of the asset management game of, okay, we know we're gonna get injuries.

We understand the roster you start with on September 30th is gonna look a lot different than the one that you have at Christmas versus post-trade deadline versus in the spring.

Is he the best option?
