1. Reimer at 3 years, Ortio to backup for 2 years, Gillies should be ready to come up. Reimer is a steady goalie who is capable and could be a pleasant surprise.
2. Solid trade to move up to 3rd overall to get Puljujarvi. Foligno takes Colborne's roster spot. Clb get two second round picks just to move down 3 spots to take Brown/Keller/Jost, and a likely third pairing defenceman in Kulak. They also shed some salary.
3. New Jersey or somebody will take Wideman, who can still play. He only has one year left on that contract. Calgary will need to take back some salary in return, but get a 2nd round pick in doing so, NJ gets an upgrade on their second pairing D (or Boston, or another team).
4. Derek Grant is ready to be an NHL center. I certainly hope we sign him July 1st.
5. This team should be much better than last year, with a better goalie, a better start, and more mature/experienced players in Gaudreau, Monahan, Bennett, Ferland, Hamilton... Puljujarvi is gonna be a stud, I hope that Calgary can get that pick from Columbus!
