Though I may see bobby signing id rather make moves and end up with someone else. I really wonder if Glendening helm Gagner are coming back, I assume we will. Helm is the only one I see going home to Winnipeg. Gagner could find himself a decent 4th line role on a better team depending how much playing time they can guarantee.
But I do believe this is a very likely outcome as a basis this offseason. I want Staal to come back, him and stecher were a revelation. I’ve been picking Svech because of the past production. Shoot for the moon

So I think unfortunately they do alot of these things. They bring back basically the same team and don't really try to be better. I get that we want a sweet pick in this draft but staying the same for another year just wears on me.

Personally if this is all SY does then i hope we continue to lose the draft each and every year.

I dont advocate signing a # of free agents, but bringing back some lineup plus no trades of prospects for cap space equals colossal failure.

The answer is simple - Panik. If Seattle doesn't want him straight up, give them the rights to someone like Hirose or a mod level pick as well as a sweetener. It shouldn't cost much, because Panik alone offers them value.
