One would have to think (sadly, IMO) that Marcus Nilson will be dealt to a team in need of a warm body. Nilson can't seem to find his way into the lineup, likely because guys like Nystrom have shown they can do the same job with a little more energy or effectiveness.
Although, I'd argue Nilson could do a better job than Mark Smith. Maybe Keenan see something in Smith.
Either way, I would imagine Nilson (or maybe Primeau, but likely not with that contract) will be on his way out at some point in the near future, probably just for a draft pick, at which point Nystrom will be back.
I really hope not. I've always liked Nilson, and I think he's looked pretty good in the games he's been in.
