Just guessing but Heinola and Niku will be with the Moose this season and Beaulieu will be the 7th dman, maybe some team puts a waiver claim in for Niku or they borrow him to another team to play for their AHL team but doubt he's traded, can't see any team giving even a late round pick for him.

I think Gustafson going to crack the squad, could see svechnikov, vaselainen to possibly fight there way into top 6, could see nash on the wing with Lowry and copp.

I think your accurate, could see niku in a Draper style trade somewhere, waiverwire for a back up goalie, and possibly only 60 games out of stastny and possibly Wheeler. I’m liking the potential of a svechnikov add, hoping vaselainen ready for some top 6 min.

Or since Gustafsson and Vesalainen are still waiver exempt would they send them down to play top minutes with the Moose and sign one or two league minimum forwards? If they did that they'd actually gain a tiny bit of cap space and they'd suppress any chance those two have of making more money when their ELC's end next season and they need new contracts when they have no arbitration rights, also that way Maurice won't have to play young players which he's loathe to do.

Your probably right again, I hate the idea of more veteran plugs ahead of these kids, time is here to live and die with some kids.
