We’d have to move out Schmidt, Holtby and Virtanen first, but could y’all imagine a OEL-Hamilton pair if a change of scenery is all OEL needed?

If I’m wondering if it would be worth retaining on Holtby and moving Schmidt to Seattle for Adam Larsson and one of their back-ups? Holtby retention was one of the deal breakers with Seattle and so I’m wondering if it would be worth our while to circle back with them? My gut feeling says no, but an OEL-Larsson pairing would be fairly solid.
I just don’t know if OEL-Schmidt as a pair can give us that two-way all situations hockey than Benning seems to want out of them. To me, both guys seem more like OF PMD’s. OEL was a two-way all situations guy back in 2015/2016 but I’m not sure if he can still play that style.
