Jokipakka/Wideman value returns would be welcomed, even if minimal.

I'm not going to bank on Ferland suddenly being consistent, though, as much as I've liked him. I think a move for a top 9 RW that can score goals and play with skill guys (JG/SM) would be satisfying what I anticipate to be a resurfacing need in the next several weeks.

And honestly, if you can get a surefire upgrade in net because of the looming expansion, then you can't turn that down. Yes, Elliott is playing some good hockey now, but there are still better options than him and Johnson that exist out there. I am content riding out the season with these guys, though. They've been at the very least adequate since late november, and appear to be improving in technique and consistency.
