What is the 1 thing the Nucks are missing to make them elite?

@luckylager Yeah, I'm guilty of overlooking Edler....how does that old cliche' go? You don't know what you have until it's gone........

You don't miss water til your well runs dry.
Agree again Hef. Starting Jan 2018 Edler returned to first class Dman form. It all just seemed to click again, until he gets overworked and starts swimming around in the last few minutes.
He needs support deeper than Tanev. The Tanev Edler pairing is a problem because neither are very good at skating the puck out or creating plays. They both get picked off all the time and are just forced to defend before the puck goes deep.

Another young, top 2-3D to support Hughes. Edler's been fantastic, and I imagine he'll play quality hockey up until he retires, but he's not getting any younger.
We look pretty good up front going forward, even if we don't keep Toffoli. We've got question marks beyond Myers, Tanev, Hughes, and Edler though. With three of those four likely being at their peak. We'll need capable youth to supplant them.
