I think the Rangers decline, having said that I’m not a fan of Kakko’s so I would be ok with just keeping Reichel and hoping he figures it out.

As for the FA signings, if Murphy gets moved then I see the need to add another veteran RHD like Schultz other wise I wouldn’t bother with him.

There is absolutely no need or space for a LHD like Aho, just resign Megna to an NHL minimum deal for one year.

Blackwell… whatever… he works hard, maybe a little too much.

Eberle is at the point in his career where I think he would take less to go to an actual cup contender.

DeSmith, again no room for him in the organization and on top of that, of all teams the Hawks are one that can not afford to bring in a player with a history of assaulting women.
