Why do we need Galchenyuk when we have a plethora of left-handed forwards ready to play, plus Rickard Rakell? (I've always wanted to use that word in a sentence.) It's bad enough we have Heinen playing on his off side -- now this makes Comtois play there too.
I think Djoos should get Larsson's contract and vice versa. But that's a very personal opinion.
No need to buy out Backes if we don't sign Galchenyuk; he only costs us $2.5 million in real money his last year, and he's a fine fourth-line center.
Anthony Stolarz is a perfectly fine backup for Gibson.
I don't think Persson is NHL-ready, and may go back to Sweden in any event; you should look at re-singing Jani Hakanpaa.
