I'd be pretty content with this. A few thoughts:
-Man, I'd love to add Bertuzzi...Can he stay healthy though? Pretty risky contract, but definitely not a bad addition for year 1.
-I'm still banking on someone overpaying to dump cap (ahem...lookin' at you Vancouver!). While I'd like to solidify the back end, I'm *reasonably* confident that we're going to see some sort of San Diego-Anaheim cycle, where Minty, Luneau, Helleson, and Zellweger all get looks throughout the year, while also playing bigger minutes in the AHL. Definitely curious about it though.
-Sticking with that, *if* the Ducks were to acquire someone like Myers (and get paid to do so), I think I'd prefer it over Ceci. Still though, I'd be happy to add Holl on a 1 year deal...something tells me somebody is going to grab him and sign him for 2-3 years though (I don't want that to be Anaheim).
-Contracts to Z/Terry/Drysdale seem solid. I'm genuinely curious about Drysdale though-I wonder if he ends up signing a 1 year deal to try to cash in next year on a bigger deal, or second bridge.
-I like the idea of adding Colton, or someone similar to make the team harder to play against. I think most of us (Ducks fans) want to see Comtois play with a coach that isn't Eakins, but I'm 50/50 on whether he gets non-tendered or not.
-I *hope* Lundy gets a shot on the second line. If they can build his value up a bit, he'd be a great guy to package in year 2 to upgrade the top 6.

Cheers!

Whoa, I must have missed that one...Rico @ 50% HAS to get back a 2nd+so/so prospect (Nolan Foote?)

I doubt Foote only because I'm pretty sure he's written in pen to be our 4LW this season. But yeah a 2nd and Clarke? something like that.

I could probably live with something along those lines if they decide to move him.

Fitz has been talking about Nolan Foote non stop in his last couple of interviews

Looks to be Wood’s replacement

Edmonton declines. Ceci is the guy that gets all the toughest assignments every night, the defensive starts and hardest competition. They aren't trading that for Carrick + 4th.

TDL a so so prospect would do. Full season of retention and I'd want an upgrade on the prospect to "good" tier, or maybe sharangovich and a pick is the way to go.

I really cant wrap my head around Shar. Seems like a Bunting type where he's got enough skill to be a complimentary piece to skilled play drivers and pick up points that way, but can't drive the play himself.

Pretty solid construction @Cabbie91 a few thoughts.

Lundestrom is a natural center, his play suffers a lot on the wing.

I'd love to get Bertuzzi but I don't think he signs that deal.

Ceci is a fine pickup, but he needs to be Fowlers partner. Fowler Drysdale just doesn't work as a pairing. Fowler, Drysdale, and LaCombe need defense first partners to succeed.

I like almost all (like 95%) of what you have here.

Final conclusions by my esteemed brethren @Lenny7 and @GiggyWithGibby pretty much sum everything up, but I think that Drysdale gets a lot less because he hasn't really had a chance to show what he's capable of. And I still hope that we make a pass at Ryan Graves or Carson Soucy for long-term stability at LhD to shelter the prospects coming up for the next few seasons.
