That looks much better than a week ago. 2 decent top lines, still lacking some depth up front and could use another good dman for the top 4. i'm fairly happy with where the team is now. Would like to see what this group can do in preseason before going into another trading frenzy. That said, would still like to move Sjostrom and down on the AHL roster would like to move Stoner or Lee for a similar forward. BTW: all the deals were completed via pm but I will try to get on to MSN either tonight or tomorrow sometime. Happy to be back in the league.
