## Resource

Toronto’s defense could use a boost if Chris Tanev can’t play, and Nick Blankenburg is a smart, mobile option on the market. With 21 points in 49 games last season and strong puck skills, he’s worth a low-risk professional tryout — perfect for a team building faster, smarter defense. Even if Tanev clears, Blankenburg could slot into depth; if not, he’s the ideal backup plan. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
